Prior to installation, read the entire instructions

WARNING – Risk of fire or electric shock.
LED Retrofit Kit installation requires
knowledge of luminaires electrical systems.
If not qualified, do not attempt installation.
Contact a qualified electrician.

WARNING – Risk of fire or electric shock.
Install this kit only in the luminaires that
have the construction features and
dimensions shown in the photographs
and/or drawings and where the input
rating of the retrofit kit does not exceed
the input rating of the luminaire.

WARNING – To prevent wiring damage or
abrasion, do not expose wiring to edges of
sheet metal or other sharp objects.

Installation Instructions LED-8929***-HAZ

& LED-8929***C-HAZ

• Make all electrical connection according to
national and local codes.

• Installers should not disconnect existing wires
from lampholder terminals to make new
connections at lampholder terminals. Instead
installers should cut existing lampholder lead
away from the lampholder and make new
electrical connections to lampholder lead
wires by employing applicable connectors.

• This retrofit kit is accepted as a component of

a luminaire where the suitability of the

combination shall be determined by
authorities having jurisdiction.

CAUTION – Risk of burn, allow luminaire
and lamp to cool before proceeding

3. Allow the ballast cover to hinge open.

4. Remove the wire connectors/wire nuts from
the incoming wires (wires that supply power
from the conduit system) to the ballast
circuitry. If the luminaire is provided with a
fuse and fuse holder installed to the mounting
hood the incoming wire connected to the fuse
will need to be disconnected here to bypass
the fuse. Discard all the fuses. Be careful to
leave the green ground wire connected.
