2. MOUNTINg ThE I-42-EM-R

When used with ceiling mounted downlight fixtures, the

I-42-EM-R should be mounted on the fixture above the

ceiling. The flex conduit marked “A” should be wired into the ballast/lamp compartment or to an electrical junction
box on the fixture which allows access to the ballast/lamp connections.

When battery packs are remote mounted, consult Customer Service for the maximum allowable distance between

the battery pack and the lamp(s).

4. WIRINg

A. When the

I-42-EM-R is installed on the same branch circuit, refer to Illustration 1, Figures A and B for

input wiring. When installed on separate branch circuits, refer to Illustration 1, Figures C and D for input wiring.
Per NEC, the

I-42-EM-R and A.C. ballast must be on the same panel board.

B. The

I-42-EM-R requires an unswitched A.C. power source of either 120 or 277 volts; therefore, when used

with switched fixtures, the

I-42-EM-R input must be wired ahead of the switch. Refer to Illustration 1 for

switched and unswitched fixture wiring diagrams.

C. Refer to the wiring diagrams on the back page for the proper wiring. For wiring diagrams of ballasts not shown,

consult our Customer Service.

5. LABELS

Attach the appropriate labels adjacent to the

TBTS. Annotate Re-lamping label for lamp type and wattage. The

Caution and the Re-lamping labels must be on the fixture in a readily visible location to anyone attempting to ser-
vice the fixture.

6. COMPLETINg INSTALLATION

When the installation is complete, switch the A.C. power on and join the

I-42-EM-R unit connector.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
