The THREE-WIRE track system is the most common on the market today. There are a number of fixtures and fittings that will work with this system. Our Track lighting system is completely built around this system and all the parts will work together.

The Three Wire system track sections are made of aluminum with three copper "buss bars" floating in a plastic sleeve. There are two on one side and one on the other as shown in this photograph. The one by itself is the "hot" leg of the electrical circuit. The one on the top right is the "neutral" and the one on the bottom is the "ground" Our "3 wire fixtures" are made to go on this type of track. Call us if you have questions.

This cutaway photo shows the connector on a track fixture turning to meet and make contact with the buss bars in the track. The fixtures go into the track, turn ninety degrees (in only one direction) and lock in. Look at your track to see where buss bars are located. The fixtures do not "slide" along the track. When you travel with our portable system remove the fixtures from the track. (But leave the light bulbs in the fixtures.)
