Unpacking Instructions
Immediately upon receiving a fixture, carefully unpack the carton. Check the contents to ensure that all parts
are present, and have been received in good condition. Notify the shipper immediately and retain packing
material for inspection if any parts appear damaged from shipping or the carton itself shows signs of
mishandling. Save the carton and all packing materials. In the event that a fixture must be returned to the
factory, it is important that the fixture be returned in the original factory box and packing.
AC Power
To determine the power requirements for a particular fixture, see the label affixed to
the back plate of the fixture or refer to the fixture’s specifications chart. A fixture’s
listed current rating is its average current draw under normal conditions. All fixtures
must be powered directly off a switched circuit and cannot be run off a rheostat
(variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel is used
solely for a 0% to 100% switch. Before applying power to a fixture, check that the
source voltage matches the fixture’s requirement. Check the fixture carefully to
make sure that the voltage selection switch is set to the correct line voltage you will
use.
Figure 1 - AC Voltage Switch
Not all fixtures have a voltage
select switch. Please be sure to
connect to the proper voltage.
Warning! Verify that the voltage select switch on your unit matches the line voltage applied.
All fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.
