Did you confirm the drivers are working properly?

Drivers output is ok. I am facing strange problem. When i am using potentiometer or pwm to dim they are getting dim but leds are flashing even i disconnect dimming cable on 100%

Maybe you have a bad driver then.
Did you try talking to the manufacturer?

Not yet. I have one little doubt want to clear it before i asked the manufacturer. My driver dimming output is 10v when i am testing it without putting any load on it. Is it ok or should it gives zero reading?

Not sure.
I would think that a driver with no load would not do anything.

I am a little confused are there two threads running on this topic.
I see that you are using LED strips, which are a new product on the Aquastyle site and I have no experience with them, so I can only generalize.
Which driver are you using? I think you said you have the MeanWell LPF-60D-48
The Aquastyle site looks like they use the Maxwellen LED Dimmable Drivers with the LED strips.
If you are using the MeanWell LPF-60D-48 I can only guess that you have a miss match, and you don't have enough LEDs to provide the right load balance for the MeanWell LPF-60D-48.
I would suggest that you contact the supplier and get their advice.

fixed the prob today. these strips are little bit different from the traditional leds.
