Hi,
I have been putting together a DIY LED circuit for a lighting fixture in my room consisting of 4 high power COB LED's. They will be mounted on heat sinks which have been calculated for the correct thermal dissipation and in an aluminum enclosure.
I am just awaiting the LED bulbs to arrive tomorrow in order to be able to complete the circuit and flip the switch, but I am an absolute laymen at best when it comes to electronics and have simply gone off all of the required ratings for each piece in the circuit and read from various sources how to wire them together.
It is not a complex circuit by any stretch of the imagination, just two dc converters wired in parallel to power the led and fans respectively. Then the fans and LEDs wired in parallel to the dc converters so that they all share the max amperage the converter gives out whilst maintaining a constant voltage. I have used wago clips to split the wires on both the ac and dc side of the circuit.
I have thrown together a rudimentary wiring diagram in paint and was hoping that you fine people could have a look over it and maybe tell me if I am going to electrocute myself with 240 volts when I flip the switch or whether this all seems reasonable enough. I also wanted to ask is there a way to calculate what the AC side of the circuit will be drawing from the mains amps wise, so I can work out whether my rocker switch is sufficiently protected. At the moment it is rated for 6amps @ 240 volts.
I have not used convention in the diagram as I have yet to learn any, so it shows the actual components I will be using.
Many thanks for your assistance in advance.
