We have to change the lights in my tabletennis club. We are going to put up around 50 panels in 3 strings Each panel is 40w and 24vdc. I was wondering what the best and most cost-effective way to do this might be.

One of the things I was looking to do was to get a single driver for several panels. Maybe a 200w driver for 5 panels? But would it then be better to do it in series with 120v or in parallel. And should the driver be constant power, or?

I will appreciate any and all help!

    Hell yeah get some 600mm troffers for grid ceiling, like others said. Just pop into your local electrical wholesaler and see what they can do. An electrician/a trusty mate will need to put a wire up there with 1 plug base for each light, then you just plug in & pop the troffer lights into the grid while on a ladder.
