INSTALLATION

WARNING: TO PREVENT HIGH VOLTAGE FROM BEING PRESENT ON THE ORANGE/BLACK
AND YELLOW/BLACK OUTPUT LEADS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION, INVERTER CONNECTOR
MUST BE OPEN. JOIN INVERTER CONNECTOR AFTER INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE AND AC
POWER IS SUPPLIED.

NOTE: Make sure that the necessary branch circuit wiring is available. An unswitched

source of power is required. The unswitched and switched power source must be fed
from the same branch circuit.

INSTALLING THE BACKUP MICRO INVERTER

> The backup micro inverter will be located between the AC power sources and the AC ballast/driver as shown in

wiring diagram section of instructions.

> NOTE: The backup micro inverter may be installed in close proximity to the fixture or remote from the fixture.

The maximum remote distance using 16 AWG wire is 250 ft. Contact the factory for more information.

> The AC power is fed to the backup micro inverter.

> The AC ballast/driver receives power from the backup micro inverter. Identify the output wires of the backup

micro inverter by the presence of the orange/black and yellow/black leads.

STEP 1 DISCONNECT AC POWER FROM FIXTURE

> Disconnect all power sources from lighting fixture and ensure they are locked out during installation or

maintenance.

> Disconnect power leads from the AC ballast/driver.

> Select a suitable location for the backup micro inverter and install such that its output leads can connect to

the input leads of the AC ballast/driver.

> See Illustration 1, for typical installation and select appropriate mounting method.

STEP 2 CONNECT THE BACKUP MICRO INVERTER TO THE PROPER LINE VOLTAGE

> Verify that the inverter connector (red and white) is disconnected. Note that the unswitched hot connects to

the black input lead of the backup micro inverter.

STEP 3

WIRING THE BACKUP MICRO INVERTER

> Use the wiring diagram found on page 4 as reference.

> Connect the AC power source leads to the input of the backup micro inverter.

> Connect the output leads of backup micro inverter to the AC ballast/driver.

> Wire the AC ballast/driver with the lamp in accordance with manufactures installation instructions. No ballast/

driver is necessary for incandescent lamp application.

> Make sure all connections are in accordance with the National Electrical Code, Canadian Electrical Code and

any local regulations.

> Connect the indicator LED by matching violet and brown leads.

> In a readily visible location, attach the label “CAUTION–This Unit Has More Than One Power Connection Point.

To Reduce The Risk Of Electric Shock, Disconnect Both The Branch Circuit-Breakers Or Fuses And DC Power
Supply (Backup Ballast Inverter Connector) Before Servicing.”
