LuminationTMLED Luminaire

(IS Series)

There are three types of fixtures:

• S

tarter (ISS series)

• Continuous (ISC series)

• Independent (IS1series)
Use Starter Kit in general case. Use Starter SKU if preferred.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Important notes included below and on page 3.

WARNING/AVERTISSEMENT

RISK OF ELECTRICSHOCK

• Turn power off before inspection, installation or removal.

• Properly ground electricalenclosure.

RISK OF ELECTRICSHOCK

• Follow all NEC and local codes.

• Use only UL approved wire for input/output connections.
Minimumsize 18 AWG or 14AWG for continuous runs.

• When using multi-branch wire circuits with a sharedneutral,do not

operate any circuit with the neutral open. Also ensure all neutral connections

are secure before energizing the circuit.An openneutral can cause an
overvoltage condition at the luminairepower supply.

RISQUES DE DÉCHARGESÉLECTRIQUES

• Coupez l’alimentation avant d’inspecter, installer ou déplacer le luminaire.

• Assurez-vous de correctement mettre à la terre le boîtier
d’alimentationélectrique.

RISQUESD’INCENDIE

• Respectez tous les codes NEC et codes locaux.

• N’utilisez que des fils approuvés par UL pour les entrées/sorties de
connexion. Tailleminimum 18AWG ou14 AWG pour les rangées continues.

• Lorsque vous utilisezdes circuits câblés à branches multiples avec un
neutre commun, nemettez aucuncircuit en service avec le neutre ouvert.

Assurez-vous également que tous les raccords neutres soit sécurisés avant
de mettre le circuit soustension. Un neutre ouvert peut causer une condition
de surtensionà l’alimentation du luminaire.

you have any questions, contact themanufacturer.

Prepare Electrical Wiring

Electrical Requirements

The LED fixturemust be supplied with 120-277VAC,
50/60Hz or 347V, 50/60Hz and protected by a max.
20 ampere circuit breaker. Use min. 75°C supply
conductor. 347V power should only be supplied to
luminaires with voltage code “D”.

Grounding Instructions

The grounding and bonding of the overall system
shall be done in accordance with National Electric
Code (NEC) Article 600 and local codes.

Components Supplied:

• Luminaire

• 2 MountingBrackets

• End Caps (2supplied with IS1 series and ISS series)

Note: In general case, with the Starter Kit, the Starter SKU

will notbe required.

Tools and Components Required:

• T15 torx or phillips #2screwdriver

IS series luminaires come in two versions: continuous units (ISC series) and independentunits (IS1 series). A continuous electrical run
will consist of a number of continuous units up to a maximum current specified above. When installing luminaires use clean gloves
in order to avoid fouling the reflective surface. To insure a clean fixture, install the fixture with the plastic bag around the fixture, and
then remove plastic bag upon completion of any and all construction related activity.

Installation of an Independent Unit (IS1)

Choose suspensionmethod

Carefully unpack unit and inspect for

defects before installing. Wear work
gloves to prevent dirt and oil from
being transferred to the luminaire.

NOTE: When installing luminaires use
clean gloves in order to avoid fouling

the reflective surface.

Attach mounting bracket to ceiling
support structure either directly or
using a GE suspension kit according

to the suspension kit instructions

(see page 2). Maximum distance
between suspensionpoints shall not
exceed the length of the luminaire.

Installation of a Continuous Row using a Starter Kit

Use starter kits as a convenient way to install continuous rows. Starter kits are ordered separately (SKU 93018007provides parts for
1 continuous row, SKU 93022791 provides parts for 10 continuous rows).

CAUTION

THERE IS A REqUIRED DIRECTION FOR ASSEMBLING A CONTINUOUS ROW.

Continuous runs must begin with a first unit that is suspended at both ends. Use provided end-caps from starter kits to begin and

terminate the row.

The Starter & Continuous Run fixtures connect in rows

Dimming line

Next fixture in

the row

As the name implies, the Starter (if your product has such a choice) contains the beginning of the electrical connection.
This means that this fixture has the onl

y Power Drop.

The starter, when suspended, also is normally the only fixture in the row with (2) suspension hangers.
The rest of the run may be suspended from a single hanger (positioned near the end where the next fixture will connect).

For mechanical installation, follow steps 1-6 described earlier in these install instructions.
