Electrican question for LED panel install

[Wrigley]

Yes, you can bring the romex into the driver box and put a little romex connector in one of the knockouts. You'll need some slack so that you can slide the panel in and out of the frame.

Sorry Smalltown, I thought there was some reason you were running conduit. The way cyberdyke describes it above Is how I would plan to do it with Romex. I am curious though how much room is in that box? What are the dimensions, length width depth? If you are connecting more than one light on a circuit I am concerned that little box can fill up pretty quick. It might be plenty big, I don't know
On my project my trusses are the room over type and I want to insulate the first floor ceiling and have the upstairs as cold storage. So to do this I am planning to run romex into ceiling/round boxes where there is plenty of room to make connections, then insulate then drywall. This may only need to be done in the area where there is a room above, only about half the garage. I will then drop out of the round box with a knockout cover and one run of romex to the driver box. The low voltage wire for dimmer does not have to be protected from what I have read. I plan to push that through directly beside the round box in the ceiling and into the driver box. If the driver box turns out to be large enough to accommodate two romex coming into the driver box and connections made there I may opt to not install boxes in the rest of my area and just push them through the drywall.
Thanks

I will run out now, and get the dimentions for you. I'll edit this post when I come back in.

Here are two photos. The first gives you general layout. The second has the measurements. Notice the terminal area takes away about 3/4" This is where you make your connections. The power feed has two each AC-L and two AC-N this must me to be able to daisy chain fixtures. The dimmer circuit does not have this feature, but I'll bet you could slip two dimmer wires under them. There are two knockouts to the left, and one at the top and bottom of the picture. Hope that helps.

Don't remember if yours are the same Lumens ~9000, but I tested the two I have just to be sure they work. When I turned them one by one I just said wow. Please ask if there is anything else I can do.

Yes, the two AC ports are so that you can jumper over to the next panel and the next one, etc.
Dont put two wires under the dimming ports. You can make those connections anywhere. What is commonly done is to make a main run of two low voltage wires and then connect each fixture to the main run. No electrical enclosures are needed for the low voltage connections.

Hard to overlook that the fixture comes with 2 output wires in each port. Not a practice I've ever used.

same as a fluorescent socket.

Thanks Smalltown, that may save me a few bucks and some time knowing the dimensions and Cyberdykes comment on how the AC ports work.
I actually have a linear high bay 80 watt 10400 lumens and really like it. I initially purchased this to see how I liked it before taking the plunge and getting a bunch of stuff that in the end I wouldn't like. I went to order the rest but they were out of stock and I don't think they are coming back in. I did however just order a couple of 2x2 5200 lumen flat panels. Its going to raise my costs considerably but from reading other post seems like most people like the end result.
