-
Very carefully uncoil the braided coaxial cable in a spool-like manner. Insert your index fi ngers into opposite sides of the roll then rotate your fi fingers around each other to unroll the coaxial cable. Use patience: allow the cable to uncoil completely to avoid kinks. Thread the coaxial cable through the canopy. Drill a 45mm (1.7”) diameter hole in ceiling material. Pull low voltage house wire through the hole.
Note: This low voltage wire will run to a remote-mounted power supply. -
Determine the overall drop for the pendant fi fixture. Use the 2mm Allen key to loosen the setscrew in the canopy and gently feed the cable through until you have reached your desired drop length.
Use the Allen key to tighten the setscrew to hold the strain relief and secure the coaxial cable at its new length. Perform a gentle tug test to ensure it is secure.
DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN.
Note: The strain relief is a black plastic collar around the coaxial cable. There is a single slot opening on the side of the strain relief component. It is essential that this opening is oriented at 90 degrees to set the screw chamber. There can be no contact between the set screw and the cable.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHORT! -
Xenon (110V) or LED: connect the black wire to black and white wire to white wire.
Xenon (230V): connect black wire to brown wire and white wire to blue wire.
Connect the house wires to the coaxial cable using #16 butt splices (stagger the splices). Use raw butt splices and heat shrink to simplify the installation.
For multiple pendant installations, ensure that the braided outer wires are all connected to one 12V output wire and all inner insulated wires are connected to the other or a short will occur.
Note: Insulated core is positive and braided exterior is negative. Affi x mini innie canopy to ceiling surface with fasteners provided. Turn power to fi xture on.
Bocci lamps are included. Plug the lamp into the socket. Do not touch the lamp with your bare hands. Ensure power to the lamp is working correctly. Remove the center cap
from the 28 pendants. Install 28 pendants by sliding the center cap onto the coaxial cable, gently insert the lamp into the pedant, then tighten the center cap connection by hand.
DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN.
Note: when using a dimmer use only a low voltage electronic dimmer.
Tape the mounting plate edges with fi ber mesh drywall tape.
Note: mask the coaxial cable off with painter’s tape to help with cleanup.
Use a drywall fi filler compound to “mud over” the assembly. Use the raised edge to mud up to establish a sharp edge and to avoid getting mud in the indentation Feather from the center of the mounting plate outwards using a large drywall trowel.
Using a foam sanding block, sand the entire area until the rim and the edge of the operative component is exposed. For long-term performance, it is essential that mud is sanded right down to the plastic rim. Paint over the entire assembly.
-
Remove the masking tape and clean fingerprints from glass surfaces. For additional assistance, please contact Bocci: Remove the protective fi lm from the center cap after assembly.

DESCRIPTION
The ‘mi’ designation in this 28 variant refers to the mini innie canopy. The
mini innie canopy is 35mm (1.4”) in diameter (exposed), 88mm (3.5”) in
diameter overall, and 35mm (1.4”) deep, which is meant to be mudded into
drywall. The pendant drop lengths on this light fixture are adjustable up to
the specifi ed maximum.
Note: not adjustable after drywall in finished.
28 is an exploration of specifi city in manufacturing. Instead of designing
form itself, here the intent was to design a system of making that yields
form. Individual 28 pendants result from a complex glass blowing technique
whereby air pressure is intermittently introduced into and then removed from a
glass matrix which is intermittently heated and then rapidly cooled. The
result is a distorted spherical shape with a composed collection of imploded
inner shapes, one of which acts as a shade for the light source.
Standard 28s are made with clear glass exterior spheres and milk-white
interior lamp holder cavities. 28s are possible with infi nite versatility in
color compositions, sizes, and shapes.
