DESCRIPTION
Low Voltage
Class 2
High
V
The PWP120277 power pack is the foundation for any low voltage lighting control
system. The PWP120277 supplies low voltage power to occupancy sensors and
other control devices, switching line voltage in response to signals from control
devices. The PWP120277 power pack is attached to existing junction boxes or
mounted into fixture wiring trays.
Low voltage wiring should use at least 22-gauge wire, high voltage connections
should use at least 14-gauge. Always check local building codes. After initial
wiring is complete, check wiring diagram to verify power pack is wired correctly.
Improper wiring can cause damage to power pack, lighting system, and
occupancy sensor.

Installation Notes
1. Power packs should be installed in accordance with state, local and national
electrical codes and requirements.
2. Power packs are designed to attach to existing or new electrical enclosures
with 1/2 inch knockouts.
3. Most applications require UL listed, 18-22 AWG, 3-conductor, Class 2 cable
for low voltage wiring. For plenum return ceilings, use UL listed plenumapproved cables.
4. The PWP120277 is a Class 2 Output Power Supply, suitable for parallel
interconnection of up to 10 units maximum. This powerpack is UL Listed for
Interconnection of Power Sources in accordance with the National Electric
Code.

OPERATION
Low Voltage Input (Blue Wire):
The blue wire carries the +12-24VDC maintained input Control ON signal to the
PWP120277. Applying 12-24VDC to this input closes the PWP120277 load relay.
Removing the voltage returns the relay to its normal state. This input is intended
for sensor or control device input.
Over Current Protection:
The PWP120277 contains built-in short circuit and thermal protection circuitry
that shuts down the +24VDC output (red wire to sensors) to prevent permanent
damage to the power pack. Removing the excess load from the output restores
the PWP120277 to proper operation. The excess load can be connected to another
power pack.
LED Indicator:
The LED indicates the following conditions on the PWP120277:
• LED OFF: no power to the PWP120277, or the +24VDC output is shorted.
• LED ON, blinks once every 5 seconds: the relay is closed (load ON).
• LED ON continuously: the relay is open (load OFF).
• LED blinking continuously: current output limit is exceeded (too many
sensors are connected to the power pack); +24VDC output shut down.
