About 2 and a half years ago, I added this fixture to my garage where the original light (one light bulb outlet; re-hard wired) was:
400-Watt Equivalent Integrated LED
The lighting is decent but I'd like to add another one -- same light -- to the other side of the garage. In order to do that, I'll take this light down, put a junction box where the bulb was, and wire to where I want the two lights to go, add the appropriate boxes, and reinstall the lights.
My question is that by my calculations, these lights draw a little less than 1.5 amps per light. What's weird is that the HD page says "277 volts." What is that referring to? Household current would be 120 volts (max) right? Either way, how do I check to make sure that won't overload the circuit? This is, as stated, in a garage with approximately 4 OTHER receptacle outlets, including the one the GDO is on, and 2 light switches -- one inside the house, and the other near the garage door (for whatever reason; never gets used).
