Safety Precautions
Read all safety precautions and installation instructions carefully before
installing or servicing this fixture. Failure to comply with these instructions
could result in potentially fatal electric shock and/or property damage.
It is recommended that a qualified electrician perform all wiring. This fixture
must be wired in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.
Do not handle any energized fixture or attempt to energize any fixture with
wet hands or while standing on a wet or damp surface or in water.
This fixture is designed for use in a 120-277VAC, 60Hz. Do not use on a
dimming circuit. Maximum of 10 linkable units on a circuit.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, and to assure proper operation, this
fixture must be adequately grounded. To accomplish proper grounding, there
must be a separate ground wire (green) or bare metal contact (metal conduit)
between this fixture and the ground connection of your main power supply
panel. The green ground screw location is clearly marked on the fixture
housing.
This fixture is intended for use for general indoor lighting in dry or damp
locations only.
Assembly Instructions
1. Preparing for installation
A. Disconnect electrical power before installing or servicing any part of
this fixture.
B. Remove fixture from carton, set ceiling-pan assembly aside (shade (3),
decorative frame (2) and ceiling-pan (1) are pre-assembled). Open
hardware bag and remove contents.
(see figure 1)
2. Wiring
All wiring must take place inside junction box.
Caution: Make sure power is off at fuse or circuit breaker box. Check power wires
for damage or scrapes. If power supply wires are within three inches of ballast; use
wire suitable for at least 90C (194F). Note: Most dwellings built before 1985 have
supply wire rated to 60C. Consult a qualified electrician before installing. This unit
will not operate properly unless connected to a “grounded” electrical circuit.
Electrical shock, overheating, low or no light output, and shortened lamp life can
result if proper grounding is not done.
A. Using wire connectors on harness (see figure 2) ; connect white supply
wire to white wire 2-pin connector (9) (Note: slide wire protective sleeving
away from connector to see wire color) ; insert the stripped wire end into
the open pin-hole location of the connector (9). Connect black hot
supply wire to black wire 2-pin connector (9); insert the stripped wire
end into the open pin-hole location of the connector. Follow the same
instructions to connect the ground wire. Do not mix wires. Pull on each
wire lead to make sure the connections are secure. Make certain no bare
wires are exposed outside of wire connectors.
3. Ballast Wiring
A. Using wire connectors (8) on harness, insert white wire from ballast to
white wire 4-pin connector (8); insert the stripped wire end into the
open pin-hole location of the connector (8). Connect black wire from
ballast to black wire 4-pin connector (8); insert the stripped wire end
into the open pin-hole location of the connector (8). Follow the same
instructions to connect the ground wire. Do not mix wires. Pull on each
wire lead to make sure the connections are secure. Make certain no bare
wires are exposed outside of wire connectors.
4. Mounting (Hardwired Unit)
A. Attach ceiling-pan (1) to junction box (not provided) through keyhole
slots with #8-32 x 1-1/8” screws (4 - provided).
