Patent Images
1. A system for providing DC power to a driverless load comprising:
- a power supply comprising;
a supervisory controller operably connected to line power;
a DC driver having an output with at least three conductors, the DC driver operably connected to line power and the supervisory controller;
a three conductor connector operably connected to the output of the DC driver; and
a cable operatively connecting the three conductor connector to the driverless load to conduct energy and communication between the power supply to the load.

Abstract
A DC power supply for lighting includes low voltage driver electronics for any suitable load such as lighting along with a supervisory controller that communicates to the driver electronics via any suitable digital communication protocol. Each driver'"'"'s output ports include a 3rd wire that communicates to the low voltage load fixture for the purpose of auto-negotiating the appropriate power level without first having to energize the fixture.
