It is recommended that luminaires are installed and tted by a qualied electrician ensuring the
installation complies to current IEE wiring regulations and local building control.
These products are designed for connection to a 240V~ Mains supply. This tting will be considered
Class I with Loop In / Loop Out connector. Switch off the mains supply before installation or servicing.
This product is for indoor use only. Ensure area surrounding this luminaire is cleared of any
ammable substances. Please refer to the good practice guide on page 2 regarding insulation and
minimum requirements for free airspace around the installed tting. Always check with lamp
manufacturer to ensure that the lamp is suitable for an enclosed can tting.
Dimming Guidelines
Dimmers must not be underloaded or overloaded: underloading may cause the lamps to ash. If
ickering is experienced a different kind of dimmer may be required. Please note: DO NOT perform
insulation resistance tests on a lighting circuit with LED lamps installed or a dimmer switch connected
as this could damage the electronic components in the products beyond repair. A slight buzzing noise
may be heard from the dimmer switch while in operation, however this is perfectly normal. These
notes are intended for guidance only. JCC Lighting accepts no responsibility for unsatisfactory
installations or consequent loss or damage howsoever caused. Please be aware that this mains
Fireguard tting is suitable for use with dimmable lamps. In all cases regarding LED lamps, refer to
lamp Manufacturer for suitability for use in a sealed can and with dimmer switch manufacturers for
compatability.
Installation Procedure
Stage 1. Read the instructions and check you have all the tools and accessories required to complete
the installation correctly.
Stage 2. Cut the mounting hole in the ceiling. (JCC recommends that a sample hole is cut in a section
of spare material to familiarize yourself with the process). See Fig.1.
Stage 3. Connect luminaire to 240V~ supply (as shown on the left and below). Press springs back and
push luminaire body into aperture.

Why you need FIREGUARD
Part E Acoustic Standard
In today’s modern society there is a general increase in the levels of background noises that can be
expected in a domestic environment when compared with the past. The evolvement of ever increasing
high delity systems and associated power outputs, TV, Satellite and Radio, coupled to noise from trafc
such as automobiles, trains and aircraft means that unwanted noise is on the increase. This additional
noise has increased stress levels which ultimately results in poor health and fatigue. The end result is loss
of revenue to industry through absence.Thus, the Government has implemented changes to the building
regulations to ensure that a reasonable amount of attenuation can be expected between partition walls
and ceilings not only between separate dwellings but also noise derived from within an individual
residential area. The special gaskets incorporated into the Fireguard design ensure that the criteria is
met.
Part L Energy Conservation
The 2006 revision to Part L has added considerable onus onto lighting installations with a far more
dened requirement for energy conservation. There is now a need for 1 in 4 downlights to be energy
efcient. Where downlights are used in abundance the need to nd suitable locations for energy
efcient luminaires becomes more challenging. This tting gives you those options allowing you to
choose an LED lamp which is suitable and more efcient than the traditional halogen lamp.
Part C Moisture Protection
New building materials and associated construction methods are altering the way in which new
properties are manufactured. There is a move towards breathable membranes for roofs; these replace
traditional bitumen coated roong felt and negate the need to provide ventilated eaves to roofs. The
material allows water vapour to permeate from the roof area out to the surrounding environment but
remains impervious to external moisture. The material is much lighter and allows a roof to be completed
at ground level and lifted into position on the dwelling creating a water tight environment under which
construction can continue. There is no longer a need to provide ventilated eaves. For this reason the
amount of moisture that can enter a cold roof void must be controlled; thus anything which punctures
the seal between the cold roof area and dwelling area must be considered. Light ttings and loft hatches
are good examples of intrusions into the roof area that can facilitate the passage of moisture.BS5250
which is referenced in Part C stipulates the permitted air ow per luminaire (0.06m³/Hr/m² at a pressure
of 2 pascals) for which Part L denes the testing criteria and total building envelope performance. The
requirements are very demanding and care is needed to ensure compliance. Fireguard downlights have
been designed with special seals to inhibit the ow of air & moisture through the tting as required by
Part C of the building regulations. This has been widely enforced from the 1st of July 2005.

The purpose of Part B is to ensure building structures provide adequate protection to personnel to allow
the safe evacuation of a building structure/complex. The regulation has been a legal requirement since
1987.The level of resistance required is proportional to the risk involved and the location of adjacent
dwellings. For the domestic market 30 or 60 minutes is normal. However under extreme conditions 90
minutes is required. All Fireguard ttings are tested for 30, 60 & 90 minute ceilings (I -Joist ceiling
construction 30 & 60 minute compliant).
