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.
Model numbers ending in MV are designed for use in a 120-

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
contact (metal conduit) between this fixture and the ground
connection of your main power supply panel. The green ground
screw location is clearly marked on the fixture housing.
This fixture is intended to be used for general indoor lighting in dry

Assembly Instructions
1. Preparing for installation
A. Disconnect electrical power before installing or servicing any part
of this fixture.
B. Remove all contents from packaging.
C. Remove screws (2) from housing cover (3). Remove cover (3).
D. Thread four diffuser mounting pegs (4) onto housing cover (3).
E. Attach decorative end caps (10) by screwing bracket (8) into
threaded holes in back of channel with screws provided (9).
F. Install junction box cover plate (5)(supplied) to channel with short
screws and hex nuts provided.
2. Fixture mounting.
A. To locate, hold channel up to the wall with power supply knockout
(6) located over entryway for power supply wires. Mark the
locations of the mounting holes (7) on the wall. Take the channel
down and punch a small hole into the wall at each location using a
nail or an awl to see if there is a wood joist.
B. If there is a joist, use a suitable wood screw (included) to mount the
channel. Where there is no joist to screw into use wall anchors and screws provided or toggle bolts (not included) of suitable length to
mount channel securely to the wall. Proceed to step C before final mounting.
C. Feed the black and white supply wires, and the green ground wire into the fixture through the open hole (6). At this time you can finish
mounting the channel to the wall.
3. Wiring.
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 provided
green ground screw.
B. Using wire connectors (provided), 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 to make sure connections are secure. Make certain no bare wires are exposed outside of wire connectors.
C. Install cover (3), position cover over channel and replace screws (2).
D. Install appropriate lamp (11) (included) by inserting lamp pins into lamp holder. Rotate into place to seat lamp for proper connection.
