Apex Pergola — Electrical Specifications and Power Requirements

Apex supply range, 24 V DC motor and LED specifications, loads by size, and information needed for electrical planning.

Electrical reference for Hanso Apex motorized pergolas, based on the factory responses supplied to Hanso. Match the model, size, and supplied equipment before using these specifications.

This reference covers the pergola louver motors and LED lighting listed in the factory response. Heaters, motorized sunshades, speakers, ceiling fans, and other accessories need their own electrical specifications.

Household supply and motor voltage are different. The motors and LEDs operate at 24 V DC through the supplied power system. Do not connect mains power directly to the motor or LED wiring. Confirm that the incoming supply matches the input label on the supplied power supply.

How to read this table: The combined watts equal motor quantity × 43.2 W + the listed LED watts. The DC current equals that subtotal ÷ 24 V. These values reproduce the workbook’s motor-and-LED subtotals; they are not verified complete-system maximum loads or household AC input currents. They exclude unquantified controller consumption, conversion losses, and starting-current peaks. Do not use these DC currents to select a breaker.

Power supply, outlets, and circuits

The factory reports a 300 W transformer for Apex, and the size table also lists 300 in its controller/driver-watts column. Treat this as a reported power-supply rating pending the label/data sheet, not as measured consumption or a breaker rating.

The factory answered that separate A1/A2 outlets and separate circuits are not needed for the listed base pergola system. This does not establish the exact number or type of power connections, or approve sharing a circuit with heaters or other accessories. Confirm the supplied wiring arrangement and total connected load with your electrician.

Information still needed before final electrical planning

The factory response does not provide the AC input current or frequency, a confirmed breaker rating, exact US plug/receptacle type, GFCI requirements, complete grounding instructions, or verified whole-system maximum load.

Motor/controller model numbers, official data sheets, wiring diagrams, nameplate photos, and US certification/listing details were also not supplied in the workbook.

Have a qualified electrician confirm the outlet, circuit capacity, breaker, wiring, grounding, and required protection for the supplied equipment and installation location. Request the missing manufacturer information from Hanso Support before making a final electrical plan.
