INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: Before installing, make certain the A.C. power is off and the I-13-L unit connector
is disconnected.
1. MOUNTINg ThE I-13-L AND BATTERy
Mount the I-13-L in the ballast channel or enclosed wireway so the wire leads are not exposed, at least 1 /
2
″ away
from the A.C. ballast(s). Mount the I-13-L using the mounting holes provided. The insulating barrier should be
mounted against the fixture wall. Then the main circuit board can be mounted leaving a space between the board
and the mounting barrier as shown in Illustration 1. The circuit board should be placed so that no live parts are ac-
cessible during routine maintenance or relamping.
The battery should be at least 1 /
2
″ from the A.C. ballast and other heat sources. Since heat rises, try to mount the
battery as low as possible. CAUTION – Connect the battery to the unit before applying AC power.
2. WIRINg
Refer to the wiring diagrams on the back page for the appropriate wiring of lamp(s), ballast and I-13-L. Install in
