before installing or servicing this fixture. Failure to comply with
these instructions could result in potentially fatal electric shock
and/or property damage.
It is recommended that all wiring be performed by a qualified
electrician. This fixture must be wired in accordance with all national
and local electrical codes.
Do not handle any energized fixture or attempt to energize any
fixture with wet hands or while standing on a wet or damp surface or
in water.
Make sure that the power source conforms to the requirements of the
fixture. (See labels on fixture housing).
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, and to assure proper operation,
this fixture must be adequately grounded. To accomplish proper
grounding, there must be a separate ground wire (green) or bare metal

A. Disconnect electrical power before installing or servicing any part of this fixture.
B. Remove all components from cartoning.
C. Insert spacer (7) and corded assembly (2,3,4,5,6) through decorative trim frame (8).
D. Fasten long threaded spacer (10) to stem exiting trim frame (8). Lock with short threaded
spacer and short stem (12).

up with holes in canopy (14) and adjust length to allow for decorative nuts (13). Lock screws
in position with lock washers and hex nuts provided.
2. Wiring.
All wiring must take place inside junction box. Caution : Make sure power is off at fuse
or circuit breaker box. Check power wires for damage or scrapes. If power supply wires are within
three inches of ballast use wire suitable for at least 90C (194F). Note: Most dwellings built before
1985 have supply wire rated to 60C. Consult a qualified electrician before installing.
A. This unit will not operate properly unless connected to a “grounded” electrical circuit.
Electrical shock, over heating, low or no light output, and shortened lamp life can result if
proper grounding is not done. Securely attach green (or green and yellow) wire to ground
supply wire and to ground screw located in gem bar (16).
B. Using wire connectors, connect white supply wire to white ballast lead. Connect black hot
supply wire to black ballast lead. Do not mix wires. Pull on each wire lead to make sure
connections are secure. Make certain no bare wires are exposed outside of wire connectors.
