3. 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.

A. 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. Securely attach bare ground wire to supply
ground.

B. Using wire connectors connect white, ribbed or flat-sided fixture wire to the white

supply wire. Connect black, smooth or round fixture wire to the black hot supply
wire. Do not mix wires. Pull on each wire lead to make sure connections are secure. Make certain
no bare wires are exposed outside of wire connectors. Tuck wires into outlet box.
