the label affixed to the side of the product. Alternatively, see the

Technical Specifications

.

The listed current rating indicates the maximum current draw during normal operation.

Junction Box Wiring

The Ilumipod Inground IP products have an IP67-rated junction box where the power and
signal cables come into the unit. The cables access the junction box through individual (signal
and power) IP67-rated stainless steel gland nuts.
Make sure that the junction seal is clean before placing the cover back on. In addition, tighten
the gland nuts and the junction cover to prevent water from entering the junction box and
causing a short.
The figure below shows the connections in the junction box.
















Power Wiring

To provide AC power for any of the Ilumipod Inground IP products, you must run a single
SJTW rated 3-conductor cable (AWG18/3, 6~8 mm external diameter) from the power
distribution box into the installation sleeve and the product’s junction box.
Strip the end of the AC power cable that will connect to the junction box as indicated in the
figure.
