ULH-DWM Direct Wire Module Installation
1. Turn off power for appropriate electrical circuit at elec-
trical service panel.
2. Remove module cover screws and cover. Save screws
and lockwashers.
3. Prepare BX or Flat NM cable (2C+Ground) by stripping
conductor ends approximately
1
/
2
˝.
4. For Installation Using NM Cable Push-In Ports: Insert
NM cable through desired PUSH-IN PORT in module as
shown. NM cable outer jacket must protude thru push-
in port to adequately protect internal conductors. Two
ports can be used for loop-feed supply wiring if desired.
Proceed to step 6.
5. For Installation Using 3/8˝ All-Purpose Connector:
Remove desired REAR KNOCKOUT and attach 3/8˝ con-
nector to module as shown. Affix connector to electri-
cal supply (BX or NM). NM cable outer jacket must
protude thru connector to adequately protect internal
conductors. Tighten locknut and clamping screws on
connector fitting securely. Two connectors can be used
for loop-feed supply wiring if desired.
6. Determine mounting orientation and remove one SIDE
KNOCKOUT on desired side of module for jumper cord
attachment. The rear knockouts can also be used for
jumper cord attachment if desired. The jumper cord is
field shortenable. Position strain relief bushing on
jumper cord at desired location, compress bushing and
insert into module at SIDE KNOCKOUT. Cut off excess
cord and re-strip conductor ends approximately
1
/
2
˝ for
shortened cord lengths. Leave adequate length for con-
nection to supply conductors and ground lead.
7. Connect the jumper cord conductors to the supply con-
ductors and module ground lead using wire nuts pro-
vided. Note that the ribbed side of the jumper cord is
the neutral conductor. The jumper cord center conduc-
tor with green insulation is the ground conductor. If
using NM cable, the NM cable must have a ground wire
connected to the module ground lead and the jumper
cord ground conductor. Supply wires are typically
color-coded: hot-black, neutral-white, ground-green or
bare copper.
8. Push excess electrical supply wire back into wall and
locate module on mounting surface. Affix module to
underside of cabinet with screws provided. Be careful
not to drive screws all the way through the cabinet bot-
tom. Use shorter screws if necessary.
9. Replace and secure module cover with supplied hard-
ware. Make certain all hardware is replaced and prop-
erly tightened. Make certain lockwashers are located
beneath screw heads to properly ground cover.

INSTALLATION USING NM CABLE PUSH-IN PORTS
INSTALLATION USING 3/8˝ ALL-PURPOSE CONNECTOR
10. Follow installation instructions provided with ULH undercabinet
light fixture. Mount fixture, remove
electrical port cover and plug jumper cord (supplied with mod-
ule) into electrical port on fixture.
11. Make sure all fixtures connected to the module have their dif-
fusers/lenses properly installed. Make sure all open electrical
ports on the fixtures are safely enclosed with port covers provid-
ed with fixtures.
12. Restore circuit power at electrical service panel. Turn on switch-
es at each individual fixture.
