RECESSED H.I.D.
CAUTION:
To avoid electrical shock, be sure power supply is turned off before installing or servicing this fixture. Check
ballast for correct wattage, voltage and lamp type.
1. Install the fixture in the ceiling (see back) using bar hangers placed in the hanger brackets as shown. This fixture should be
mounted in such a manner so that the weight of the fixture is supported by the bar hangers and/or hanger wires secured to the
building structure.
2. Adjust the fixture so the bottom of the plaster flange is flush with the finished ceiling line. Accomplish this with the adjustment
screws securing the hanger brackets on either end of the fixture.
3. Remove J-Box cover plate. Remove appropriate knockout and assemble appropriate connector for the supply wire used. Connect
ground wires to green ground leads. Connect white (common) to white (leads). Connect power supply (line) to black lead(s).
Reinstall J-Box cover.
WARNING: DO NOT pinch wires between J-Box/ballast cover and J-Box. Consult a Qualified Electrician for all other
options that require other wiring configurations.
4. Install the ballast -
FE Ballast Installation: The ballast and housing are shipped separately, and the housing is factory wired for 277 VAC. If the
supply voltage is 277 VAC, no adjustment is required. For supply voltage of 120 VAC, disconnect the prewired 277 VAC
