Faven Chroma 240V Power Cord W/SPD 3.0

What This Cord Does

The Faven Chroma power cord is not a generic power cable. Unlike the R-series cords used with R6 and R8 fixtures, the Chroma cord carries both 240V AC power and Faven's proprietary digital communication protocol simultaneously. That communication bus is what allows your controller — whether a Faven CX2, GrowFlux, an approved RS485 adapter, or a 0–10V system — to reach every fixture in a daisy-chain and deliver spectrum commands, dimming levels, and far-red scheduling in real time.

Without the correct OEM Chroma power cord, your fixtures receive power but the control signal cannot pass through. Faven also specifies use of OEM control wiring as a condition of the Chroma fixture warranty — aftermarket or R-series cords are not interchangeable. One cord is required per daisy-chain (i.e., per bench or per circuit run); Chroma jumper cables then bridge fixture-to-fixture connections within the chain.

What's in the Bundle

This SKU ships as a complete starting-point kit for a single 240V Chroma daisy-chain. The bundle includes: (1) the 10 ft / 3M power cord with integrated surge protection device (SPD), (2) an IP66-rated end cap to seal the open port on the last fixture in your chain, and (3) a single-end 10 ft / 3M communication cable for the controller connection. A low-voltage dimming wire is also included.

The integrated SPD protects your fixture chain from voltage transients on the circuit — relevant in commercial facilities where HVAC, dehumidifiers, and motor-driven equipment share panel space with lighting circuits. The IP66 end cap ensures the unsealed output port on your terminal fixture meets the same moisture ingress rating as the fixture body itself, which matters in wet-zone environments where spray programs and sanitization run independently of the light schedule.

Daisy-Chain Planning at 240V

Each bench requires at least one power cord to serve as the entry point for the daisy-chain. At 240V, a typical single-cord chain handles configurations such as six fixtures per row across two rows (12 total) using one power cord plus one extension cord per bench. Larger configurations — for example, eight fixtures per row across three rows (24 total) — require two 240V power cords and one extension per bench. If your fixture count per bench exceeds the maximum daisy-chain capacity, split into separate chains, each fed by its own power cord on its own circuit.

This cord is rated for 240V only. The 120V and 277V Chroma variants are separate SKUs — the 277V Chroma cord uses a NEMA L7 twist-lock connector for code-compliant connections in commercial infrastructure running that voltage. Verify your facility's panel voltage before ordering. This cord is not compatible with Faven R6, R8, or R8 FR base-model fixtures; those require the R-series power cord bundle.

Where This Fits in a Commercial Chroma Build

In multi-bench commercial rooms running Faven Chroma, each bench operates as an independent daisy-chain: one power cord feeds the first fixture, jumper cables connect subsequent fixtures, and the IP66 end cap closes the terminal port. The CX2 controller supports up to 100–150 fixtures per unit across two independent channels. GrowFlux wireless control scales further — up to 99 fixtures per dimmer, with 99 dimmers per access point and approximately 500 ft range — making it the preferred option for large multi-zone facilities.

On tiered vertical rack installations, this wiring architecture keeps per-shelf timer hardware off the table: one central controller manages spectrum and intensity across all levels through the Chroma comm bus running through these cords. For operators running both top-light and under-canopy layers, Chroma's 0–10V compatibility allows integration into existing lighting control infrastructure, with this cord serving as the communication pathway from controller to each fixture in the supplemental layer.
