Recently, the Zhaga Alliance China Summit, themed "Connect the Future · Light Up Shenzhen", was successfully held in Shenzhen. Lighting enterprises gathered to explore the future direction of LED lighting system interface standardization around the two core themes of innovation and green development. As a member of the Zhaga Alliance, LTECH was invited to attend and deeply participated in technical specification discussions on core components such as Light engines and LED Driver, taking concrete actions to promote the upgrade of industry compatibility and replacement efficiency.

Moving Forward Together
Accelerating the Implementation of Lighting Standards
Since its establishment in 2010, the Zhaga Consortium has consistently adopted an open approach to build a globally unified standard system for lighting component interfaces. Through the Book series specifications, it clearly defines mechanical dimensions, electrical interfaces, and programming protocols, and has become a core force driving cost reduction and efficiency improvement in the industry as well as enabling circular economy.
From a board member of the DALI Alliance to a practitioner of Zhaga standards, LTECH has consistently taken "collective collaboration" as the core logic of its technological development. Among these efforts, our launched LF Series · Next Generation Linear Intelligent Lighting LED Driver is precisely a product that embodies the brand's commitment to standardization: its overall design strictly complies with both Zhaga Book 13 and Book 24 standards, enabling efficient replacement and convenient installation for various luminaires.
In the future, LTECH will continue to collaborate deeply with global member partners, actively participate in the discussion and formulation of next-generation interface standards, and work together with the industry to drive lighting products toward a higher level of compatibility and interoperability, as well as green efficiency.
