This fixture is provided with a sensor rated for 360 Watts. Since the fixture is only rated 180 Watts, 180 Watts
of additional lighting may be controlled by this sensor.
When determining what a fixture is rated for, do not simply look at the rating on the lamp in the fixture. Look
at the marking which specifies the maximum lamp wattage for which the fixture is suitable.
Once you have selected the fixtures to be connected and determined their maximum ratings, add these rat-
ings up. For instance, if you have 3 fixtures rated 180 Watts, 100 Watts, and 75 Watts respectively, you have
a total load of 355 Watts.
Wiring Diagram 1 – When wiring to control a standard light fixture: Strip the motion sensor’s red wire
and connect to the standard light’s black wire. Connect all white wires together. Total fixture ratings must not
exceed 360 Watts (3.0 A).
Wiring Diagram 2 – When wiring to control another motion sensing light fixture (master / slave): Strip
the red wire in both light fixtures. Connect the red wire of the controlling (master) fixture to the red and black
wires of the controlled (slave) fixture. Connect all white wires together. Total fixture ratings must not exceed
360 Watts (3.0 A).
Wiring Diagram 3 – When wiring so either motion light turns on the both motion lights (master / master):
Strip the red wire in both light fixtures. Connect the red wire of one fixture to the red wire of the second fixture.
Note: In most installations, an additional wire (same gage as existing house wire) will have to be installed in
the house to connect the two fixtures as master / master. Connect all white wires together and all black wires
together. Total fixture ratings must not exceed 360 Watts (3.0 A).
