Wiring and Fixture Mounting

Caution: Make sure power is off at fuse or circuit breaker box.

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.

A. This unit will not operate properly unless connected to

a “grounded” electrical circuit. Securely attach green
(or green and yellow) wire to green ground screw on
gem bar with provided hardware.

B. If using Romex, snap an appropriate fitting (not

supplied) into the wall channel opening and feed
through. If hard-wired, attach appropriate conduit
fitting (not supplied). Using wire connectors
(provided), connect white supply wire to white ballast
lead. Connect black hot supply wire to black ballast
lead. Pull on each wire lead to make sure connections
are secure.

C. If using a junction box, attach wall channel (5) to round coverplate (4) with two screws and nuts provided. Feed supply wires

through large opening in wall channel and make wire connections as described in step 2B. Mount over the 1-1/4” stem and
