ABSTRACT:
A universal track light mounting system for mounting luminaires or other components to track lighting tracks of different sizes. The system includes a universal track clamp having first and second brackets that mount around the outside of a track. One bracket engages the top and one side of the track while the other engages the top and one other side of the track. A clamp fastener adjustably interconnects the brackets. A third bracket may be provided to anchor the clamp fastener to one of the first and second brackets. The adjustable interconnection enables the universal track clamp to mount to tracks of different sizes. To accommodate luminaires of different sizes, the clamp has several attachment positions, which also provide a coarse adjustment of the width of the clamp. Because luminaires are mounted to the track by a clamp around the outside of the track, a separate power adapter is provided to connect the luminaire to power conductors inside the track.
