Canopy LED retrofits. NEC 514-compliant. ComEd-filed.
ComEd's per-watt incentive applies to every watt the canopy retrofit removes. We model your station's incentive and payback before anything is quoted.
The wiring path inside the canopy column
Fixtures sit above the hazardous zone; the conduit route through the column does not. That one path triggers the petroleum wiring methods sign shops skip.
Threaded RMC or IMC through the classified zone
EMT, NM cable, and standard flex do not cross the canopy column path.
NEC 501.10(A)
Seal fittings at every zone boundary
EYS seals stop vapor migration where the raceway exits the 18-inch classified envelope.
NEC 514.9 / 501.15
Bonding that survives fault conditions
Bond bushings and listed fittings keep the grounding path intact through every metallic connection.
NEC 514.16 / 501.30
Emergency shutoff in code distance
One marked disconnect removes power to the classified-area equipment 20 to 100 feet from the dispensers.
NEC 514.11
A sign shop swaps the fixture and leaves. The conduit path stays untouched — and out of code.
12 fixtures. 3,000 watts reduced. ComEd pays per watt.
ComEd's Standard Offering calculates incentives on watts reduced, not fixtures replaced. Twelve canopy fixtures drop 3,000 watts, and every one of them counts toward the incentive. We calculate the exact figure for your station during the assessment.

1–2 weeks
ComEd reservation filed before installation — the incentive is locked in before the first fixture comes down.
Specification
1 week
DLC 5.1 fixtures selected, IES layout calculated for canopy, lot, and store in one design pass.
