hello all. hope you are safe and healthy.

giving the grow room a makeover and building a new light.

now getting to the technical stuffs.

first thing i am trying to figure out is, how do i wire up all 3 of the drivers to 1 potentiometer.

here is the driver power panel. grow and outlet on the other side of the wall
(will edit in after the site lets me load a picture)

here we go.
so i know i have to wire the pot in parallel with the three drivers, but not entirely sure what exactly to do to wire in parallel

went positive to positive all the way to the end, the end being the pot

i guess now that i am looking at it, could i save some wagos and just plug all the positives in the same 5 port?
same with the negatives?

confused me a bit here.
the drivers all have dimmer cords. i didnt think i used anything from the wall to wire up the pot.
 
That looks correct to me. Don't you love Wagos!
