Installation Instructions for ALC Series
Select a knockout location on the fixture that is best suited for
the installation. Knockouts are located along the back and top
of housing. The rear access door that is located in the middle of
the back of housing also has its own knockout for quick
connection to supply wires, foregoing the need to remove the
lens cover and open the wiring compartment. See Figure 1,
then proceed to the corresponding section below.
Supply wires connection via rear access door: (Figures 2-5)
1. Remove knockout using a hammer or punch; then loosen screw that secures rear access door
using a Philips screwdriver or driver bit. See Figure 2.
2. Install cable connecter that is appropriate for the supply wire following National Electric Code
and local codes through this knockout on the access door. See Figure 3.
(Use 14 or 12AWG wires. AC should be protected by circuit breaker or fuse).
3. Strip back jacket on supply wires 3/8“ and use push-in wire connectors inside housing to
connect wires (Black to Black/Hot, White to White/Neutral and Yellow/Green stripe [Ground] to
bare wire) through knockout so that push-in connectors are positioned on the housing side of
the access door. See Figure 4.
4. Replace rear access door and secure with screw. Note: Be sure that the wires are not pinched or
damaged by any part of the housing or the cover. See Figure 5.
Mounting fixture:
1. Position fixture in desired location and use Philips screwdriver or driver bit to tighten captive
mounting screws and secure fixture to an appropriate mounting surface.
Interconnecting fixtures:
1. Use 6” or 12” flexible jumpers (sold separately) to interconnect nearby fixtures. See Figure 6.
2. Use inline connector supplied with each fixture to connect fixtures directly to each other end-
to-end. See Figure 7.
Note: The maximum number of fixtures that can be interconnected in either manner is 40.
