There are usually three common installation methods for panel lights, which are surface mounted, suspended, and recessed.

Suspended installation: This is the most common installation method. Panel lights are installed through the ceiling and are often used in indoor environments such as offices, commercial spaces and schools. When installing, you need to use slings or hooks to hang the panel light from the ceiling, and connect the power cord to the power supply.

Surface mounted installation: This type of installation is suitable for a variety of indoor environments, especially those where recessed or suspended installations are not suitable. Surface mounted installation usually requires the use of special mounting brackets or surface mounted frame kit to ensure that the panel light is firmly installed on the places.

Recessed installation: This installation method is often used in indoor environments with low ceilings, such as meeting rooms, family rooms and commercial display spaces. The panel light is embedded in the ceiling by chiseling or slotting, so that it is integrated with the ceiling. The recessed installation method makes the panel light integrated with the ceiling, providing a more neat and compact lighting effect.

The choice of these installation methods is usually determined by factors such as the installation environment, design requirements, and personal preferences. When installing, it is recommended to follow the product manual and relevant safety standards, and ask experienced professionals to install to ensure safe operation and effective lighting effects.
