Product Usage Instructions

1. Before starting the installation process, ensure that the power to the unit is turned off. Follow proper Lock Out and Tag Out procedures.

2. Remove the existing lamps, fixture coverplate, and ballast. Replace lampholders if necessary. Leave the wiring in place and ensure that the wire length is long enough to attach to the new LED driver. Verify that the AC supply line is provided with a ground
   wire connected to the luminaire.

3. Secure the LED driver to the fixture by using the existing ballast mounting holes and screws. If necessary, create new mounting holes using self-tapping screws (not provided).

4. 1. For one-tube fixtures:
   • Connect the black (L) and white (N) wires of the driver to the black and white wires of the AC line, respectively.
   • Connect the blue wire of the driver to the lampholder at one end.
   • At the opposite end, connect the red wire of the driver to the lampholder.
   • Cap the remaining blue wire.

5. For two-tube fixtures:

  * Connect the black (L) and white (N) wires of the driver to the black and white wires of the AC line, respectively.
  * Connect the blue wires of the driver to lampholders at one end.
  * At the opposite end, connect the red wire of the driver to one lampholder.

5. If you have a dimming option, connect the pink (formerly gray) and purple wires from the driver to the dimming controller. Make sure to refer to the dimming controller’s instructions for proper connection.
6. Compact the wires and reattach the fixture coverplate.
7. Affix the label provided with the product to the fixture where it can easily be noted.
8. Insert the Type C LED tube into the lampholder of the fixture and rotate if necessary. Repeat this step for any remaining tubes.

WARNING
RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK – Disconnect power before installation or maintenance. LED Retrofit Kit installation requires knowledge of luminaires electrical systems. If not qualified, do not attempt installation. Contact a qualified electrician. Install this kit only in luminaires that have the construction features and dimensions shown in the photographs and/or drawings and where the input rating of the retrofit kit does not exceed the input rating of the luminaire. Luminaire wiring and electrical parts may be damaged when drilling for installation of LED retrofit kit. Check for enclosed wiring and components. Only those open holes indicated in the photographs and/or drawings may be made or altered as a result of kit installation. Do not leave any other open holes in an enclosure of wiring or electrical components. To prevent wiring damage or abrasion, do not expose wiring to edges of sheet metal or other sharp objects. Installers should not disconnect existing wires from lamp holder terminals to make new connections at lamp holder terminals. Instead installers should cut existing lamp holder leads away from the lamp holder and make new electrical connections to lamp holder lead wires by employing applicable connectors. THE RETROFIT KIT IS ACCEPTED AS A COMPONENT OF A LUMINAIRE WHERE THE SUITABILITY OF THE COMBINATION SHALL BE DETERMINED BY AUTHORITIES HAVING JURISDICTION.
