The diodes SD1, SD3, SD6, SD8 of the first bridge rectifier (BRi) 102 and the second bridge rectifier (BR2) 110 blocks the flow of current through the first input phase terminal (PH) 106 and the second input neutral terminal (NO 116. Hence the first input phase terminal (PH) 106 and the second input neutral terminal (NO 116 are potential free and donot flow any current through the first input phase terminal (PH) 106 and the second input neutral terminal (Ni) 116.
[031] Referring toFIG. 2 is a diagram200 depicting a system for multiple power input terminals or electrodes to provide input power supply to a plug-inconstant current driver of the light emitting diode (LED) tube light system, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. The system includes a light emitting diode (LED) tube light 202, a driver housing 204a and 204b, a cavity bracket 208, an aluminum heat sink 210, a conduit 212, input power supply terminals214a-214d and a supply input power source 216. [032] As shown inFIG. 2, thelight emitting diode (LED) tube light 202 is connected to the driver housing 204a and 204b.The driver housing 204a and 204b further includesthe first bridge rectifier (BRi) 102 whichincludes SDl, SD2, SD3 and SD4 diodes (as shown in FIG. 1A) and the second bridge rectifier (BR2) 110 whichincludes SD5, SD6, SD7 and SD8 diodes (as shown in FIG. 1A). The driver housing 204a and 204b further comprises thefirst input phase terminal (PH) 106 (FIG. 1A), the first input neutral terminal (N) 108 (FIG. 1A), the second input phase terminal (PHi) 114 (FIG. 1A) and the second input neutral terminal (NO 116 terminals (FIG. 1A).
[033] As shown inFIG. 2, the aluminum heat sink 210includes a conduit 212 at the back side of the light emitting diode (LED) tube light 202. The power supply terminals214a-214d passes through the conduit 212 from the driver housing 204a and 204b and is passed through the end caps206a and 206b. The power supply terminals214a-214d are further connected to various configurationsof concealed wiring (as shown inFIG. 1A-FIG.1E) toinput power source 216. The driver housing 204a and 204bfurther connected to a terminal connector 218 used for direct push- in of solid conductors and which further used to supply of input power. Resulting inthe driver housing 204a and 204bto convert the direct current (DC) output into constant direct current (DC) output for driving of the LED light source.
[034] Although the present disclosure has been described in terms of certain preferred embodiments and illustrations thereof, other embodiments and modifications to preferred embodiments may be possible that are within the principles and spirit of the invention. The above descriptions and figures are therefore to be regarded as illustrative and not restrictive.
[035] Thus the scope of the present disclosure is defined by the appended claims and includes both combinations and sub combinations of the various features described herein above as well as variations and modifications thereof, which would occur to persons skilled in the art upon reading the foregoing description.
