Minibox Ceiling Power Feed Installation

Assembly Instructions

INSTRUCTIONS D’INSTALLATION

Important

• Always disconnect the power before installing or replacing bulbs and before cleaning or other maintenance.

• Consult a qualied, licensed electrician to ensure correct branch circuit conductor.

Consulter un électricien qualié pour vous assurer que les conducteurs de la dérivation sont adéquats.

1. For remote transformer use: The transformer must be installed in an accessible location in accordance with local electrical

codes. You must use the appropriate wire gauge from the transformer to the Power Feed to limit the voltage drop to less

than 5%.

2. Shut o power to the branch circuit conductor.

3. Cut an opening in the mounting surface (minimum 3/8" thick) that measures 1.5" wide by 2.75" high. (Fig. 1)

4. Pull 1/2 trade size exible metal conduit or building cable (A) through the opening. (Fig. 1)

5. Remove the three Phillips screws (B) and separate the Minibox into upper (C) and lower (D) halves. (Fig. 1)

6. Remove the knockout tab from the upper half (C) and attach the cable/conduit (A) to the knockout opening using

appropriate connectors (Note: Cable/conduit and connectors not included). (Fig. 1)

7. Make appropriate electrical connections using wire nuts:

a. Connect the transformer's live wire (black) to the live outlet box wire.

b. Connect the transformer's neutral wire (white) to the neutral outlet box wire.

c. Connect the ground wire (green) to the outlet box ground screw.

d. For 60W and 75W unhoused transformers only: Carefully place connections and transformer (E) in lower half (D), with

the connections in the section near the knockout. (Fig. 1)

8. Flip wing tabs (F) inward so that the Minibox will t into the drywall opening. (Fig. 2)

9. Reattach upper (C) and lower (D) halves by installing the three Phillips screws (B) removed previously. (Fig. 1)

10. Loosen the two mounting screws (G) on the front face of the Minibox until the gap between the wing tabs (F) and the side

tabs (H) is greater than the thickness of the mounting surface. (Fig. 1)

11. Flip wing tabs (F) inward so that the Minibox will t into the drywall opening. (Fig. 2)

12. Slide O-rings (I) along mounting screws (G) so that they are ush against the wing tabs (F). (Fig. 2)
