The drawing shown may not exactly match the product enclosed. However, the installation instructions do apply to this product.
- WARNING! SHUT THE POWER OFF AT THE FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER.
- ATTENTION! COUPER LE COURANT AU FUSIBLE OU UN DISJONCTEUR.
ASSEMBLING THE FIXTURE
-
Shut off the power at the circuit breaker box. Remove old fixture and all hardware from Junction Box. Carefully unpack your new fixture and lay out all the parts in a clear area. Take care not to lose any small parts necessary for installation.
Fix mounting plate Don junction box with Box Screw. The side of the mounting plate marked “GND” must face out. The junction box is not included. -
Attach the back plate(D) of the lamp body (B) onto the junction box, and lock it securely with the Mounting Screw.
-
Follow wiring instructions carefully. (see Fig. 2)
-
Attach the back plate of the lamp body (B) onto the junction box, and lock it securely with the Mounting Screw.
-
install the light bulbs(not included) in accordance with the fixture’s specifications. NOTE: DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM WATTAGE RATING!
To prevent moisture from entering the outlet box and causing a short, use clear caulking (i.e. Indoor/Outdoor Silicone Sealant) to outline the outside of the fixture’s back plate where it meets the wall leaving a space at the bottom to allow moisture a means to escape.
- Socket parameters: 15A 120V 60HZ
CONNECTING THE WIRES
- Connect the electrical wires as follows. Connect the Black wire from the fixture to the black house (hot) Wire. Connect the white wire from the fixture to the white (neutral) house wire. Make sure all wire nuts are secured. You may wrap the connections with electrical tape. If your outlet box has ground wires (green or bare copper) connect the fixture’s ground wire to it. Otherwise, attach the bare copper fixture wire to the green ground screw on the mounting plate.
- Tuck the wire connections neatly into the wall junction box.
Your installation is now complete. Return power to the junction box and test the fixture.
CAUTION
- To prevent severe shock or electrocution, always turn the power OFF at the service panel before working with the wiring.
- Use this GFCI receptacle with copper or coppe-clad wire. Do not use it with aluminum wire Do not install this GFCI receptacle on a circuit that powers life support equipment because if the GFCI trips, it will shut down the equipment
- For installation in damp or wet locations, the GFCL receptacle must be Listed and marked as Weather Resistant(WR).
- For installation in wet locations, protect the GFCI receptacle with a weatherproof cover that will keep both the receptacle and any plug dry.
- Must be installed in accordance with national and local electrical codes.
- Tamper-resistant mechanism stops access to outlet contacts unless a two-prong plug is inserted.
What is a GFCI
A GFCI receptacle is different from conventional receptacles. In the event of a ground fault, a GFCI will tip and quickly stop the flow of electricity to prevent serious injury.
Definition of a ground fault:
Instead of following its normal safe path, electricity passes through a
person’s body to reach the ground. For example, a defective appliance can
cause a ground fault.
A GFCI receptacle does not protect against circuit overload, short circuits, or shocks. For example, you can still be shocked if you touch bare wires while standing on a conducting surface such as cement or grease.
The GFCl’s features
Test your work
Why perform this test?
If you miswire the GFCI it may not prevent personal injury or death due to a
ground fault(electrical shock).
If you mistakenly connect the LINE wires to the LOAD terminals, the GFCI will not reset and will not provide power to either the GFCI receptacle face or any receptacles fed from the GFCI. Procedure:
-
This GFCI is shipped from the factory in the tripped condition and cannot be reset until the Line and Load are wired correctly and power is supplied to the device. Turn the power ON at the service panel. Press the RESET button fully. If the indicator(LED)glows green, you have installed the GFCI receptacle correctly. Plug a lamp or radio into the GFCl(and leave it plugged in). Ensure that the GFCI can be tripped by pressing the TEST button. If the GFCI receptacle cannot be reset, the indicator(LED)does not glow, and there is no power in the lamp or radio, go to the Troubleshooting because LINE and LOAD wiring connections have been reversed.
-
Press the test button in order to trip the device. This should stop the flow of electricity, making the radio or lamp shut off. Note that the reset button will pop out. If the power goes off, the green indicator(LED)goes out, you have installed the GFCI receptacle correctly. To restore power, press the reset button.
-
If you installed your GFCI using step 7B, plug a lamp or radio into surrounding receptacles to see which one(s), in addition to the GFCl, lost power when you pressed the test button. Do not plug life-saving devices into any receptacles that lost
power. Place a “GFCI Protected” sticker on every receptacle that lost power. -
Press the test button(then the reset button)every month to assure proper operation. In case the life-end indicator(Red LED)is off the GFCI will still provide ground fault protection.
-
The GFCI includes an end-of-life monitoring function. When a GFCI receptacle is incapable of passing its internal test function(it can no longer provide ground fault protection), one of the following alarm indications will be present:
- When the GFCI reaches the end of its’ life the red indicator will turn on. The GFCI must be replaced.
- If there is no power output the GFCI has reached the end of its life.
The GFCI must be replaced.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Turn the power off and check the wire connections against the appropriate wiring diagram in steps 7 A or 7B. Make sure that there are no loose wires or loose connections. Also, it is possible that you reversed the line and load connections if the GFCI can not be reset and there is no power at the receptacle. Start the test from the beginning of step 8 if you rewired any connections to the GFCI. The GFCI includes an end-of-life monitoring function. When a GFCI receptacle is incapable of passing its internal test function(it can no longer provide ground fault protection)one of the following alarm indications will be present: When the GFCI reaches the end of its life the red indicator will turn on. The GFCI must be replaced. If there is no power output the GFCI has reached the end of its life. The GFCI must be replaced.
