ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
To make electrical connections:
Fixtures will have a black and white wire or a two wire power supply cord.
Split the power supply cord wires into separate leads. Connect the half of
the cord that is ribbed or the white wire to the white wire of the supply
circuit. Connect the smooth half of the wire (the half with markings) or
the black wire to the black wire of the supply circuit. Connect the green or
bare copper wire to the CROSSBAR grounding screw and the grounding
conductor of the supply circuit. On fixtures that do not use a crossbar
connect fixture ground wire to supply ground wire with wire connectors.
Use U.L. Listed wire connectors suitable for the size, type and number of
conductors.No loose strands or loose connectors should be present. Secure
wire connections with U.L. listed electrical tape.

Raise fixture to outlet box and secure with screws, acorn nuts or
finial.On models that have a ceiling pan with keyhole slots, the head
of the screw will pass through the larger end of the keyhole slot.The
pan must then be turned slightly so that the screw head is over the
smaller part of the opening of the keyhole slot. Tighten screws once
pan is in place.
Install light bulbs (not provided) Refer to the lamping

On models with disassembled shade, install shade and secure with
screws or finial. Please refer to illustrations. On some models the
shade is installed without hardware. On these models, line up vertical
slot on shade with raised areas on the ceiling pan. Raise shade into
ceiling pan and then turn glass shade on clockwise direction about 1/4
turn until it tightens.
Restore electricity and check the operation of your lighting fixture.
