GE current IND183 Lumination LDS Indoor Lighting
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
- Turn the power off before inspection, installation or removal.
- Properly ground electrical enclosure.
RISK OF FIRE
- Follow all NEC and local codes.
- Use only UL or IEC-approved wire for input/output connections.
- Minimum size 18 AWG or 14 AWG for continuous runs.
Save These Instructions
- Use only in the manner intended by the manufacturer.
- If you have any questions, contact the manufacturer.
Prepare Electrical Wiring
Electrical Requirements
- The LED driver must be supplied with 120-277 VAC, 50/60 Hz, and connected to an individual properly grounded branch circuit, protected by a circuit breaker. Use min. 75°C supply conductor.
Grounding Instructions
- The grounding and bonding of the overall system shall be done in accordance with the National
- Electric Code (NEC) Article 600 and local codes.
Components Supplied
- LDS Series Luminaire
- Mounting Brackets (2 supplied with DSC series, 2 provided with DSI series)
Tools and Components Required
- UL Listed conduit connections per NEC/CEC for nominal conduit trade sizes ½″ or ¾″
- UL Listed wire connectors.
Important: Maximum length of electrical run per the table below
Supply Voltage | Total Row Length |
---|---|
120V | 120’ |
277V | 300’ |
347V | 360’ |
- Please see the technical data sheet for electrical properties to ensure safe installation.
- Under any circumstance, the maximum current through connected fixtures shall not exceed 16A.
Note: With the Daintree option, the pink and purple wires from the through wiring are not connected to the dimming circuit.
Daintree Node Identification Label
- Daintree Node identification label installed on luminaire back reflector.
- Remove the package with a smaller label. This label is to be use for customer floor plan or records.
Accessory Kits (purchased separately)
Replacement Kits
- See sticker on luminaire for power supply, light engine and diffuser replacement kit SKU numbers.
Additional Accessories/ Product Code
Preparation
Carefully unpack the unit from its packaging. Properly inspect for defects before installing. Wear clean work gloves to prevent dirt and oil from being transferred to the luminaire. LDS series luminaires come in two versions; continuous units (LDSC series) and independent units (LDSI series). For mounting continuous units, a Starter Kit (SKU211994 – white or SKU211995 – black) is required for each row. A continuous electrical run will consist of a number of continuous units up to a maximum current of 16A on a 20A breaker. Additional continuous electrical runs may be appended mechanically to the same row with no limit. When installing luminaires use clean gloves in order to avoid fouling the diffuser.
Installation for Independent Fixtures
- Attach the mounting bracket to the ceiling support structure using a GEm suspension kit according to the suspension kit instructions.
- For the direct mounting to the finished ceiling, attach the mounting bracket to the ceiling support structure directly using the bolt provided in the suspension kit. ( Note: There will be a 1.4-inch gap between the fixture and ceiling).
- Remove the knockout plate either from the beginning or from the middle of the fixture.
- Clip fixture to the mounting bracket. Ensure that the groove on the fixture engages with the mounting bracket on both sides and secure the bolt. The fixture shall be suspended at both ends.
- Remove one plate and install UL-listed strain relief (not supplied).
- Pass UL listed conduit through the strain relief.
- Access wires via knockout plate hole.
- Note: Wires can be accessed from both knockout plates.
- Connect wires based on the wiring diagram above. For the “EL” option, connect the unswitched supply line to red wire, per Emergency Light Supplement wiring diagrams.
Standard | Branch Circuit 1 | Line 2 | Red (optional) |
---|---|---|---|
Line | Black | ||
Neutral | White | ||
Ground | Green/Yellow | ||
Control | (0 -10)+ | Violet | |
(0 -10)- | Pink |
- Secure knockout plate with screw.
Installation for Continuous Runs
A Starter Kit (SKU211994 – white or SKU211995 – black) is required for continuous row installation. Kit contains:
- Knockout plate
- Starting cap
- End cap
As the name implies, the Starter (if your product has such a choice) contains the beginning of the electrical connection. This means that this fixture has the only Power Drop. The starter, when suspended, also is normally the only fixture in the row with (2) suspension hangers. The rest of the run may be suspended from a single hanger (positioned near the end where the next fixture will connect).
Install the First Luminaire
- Install starting cap on the first luminaire (cap towards the knockout plate).
- Use starter kit knockout plate for power drop-in at one of the knockout locations #1 or #2.
- Follow Steps 3-6 from the previous section, Installation for Independent Fixtures.
- Access wires via knockout plate #2. Take the unconnected power supply black and white wires and connect them to either the 1st circuit or 2nd circuit. Please refer to wiring diagram in Step 9.
- Once the driver is connected, you can connect power from knockout plate #1 or #2.
- Connect wires based on the wiring diagram above.
Standard | Branch Circuit 1 | Line 2 | Red (optional) |
---|---|---|---|
Line | Black | ||
Neutral | White | ||
Ground | Green/Yellow | ||
Control | (0 -10)+ | Violet | |
(0 -10)- | Pink | ||
Optional | Branch Circuit 2 | Line | Brown |
Neutral | Brown/White |
Wiring Note: The red line can be used for A/B switching by moving the black PSU input wire of the “B” fixture to the red line. On a single circuit that shares white neutral. Note that the black and red lines share the same neutral.
Optional branch circuits can be used for A/B switching by moving black and white PSU wires of “B” fixtures onto brown and brown/white lines. On an additional circuit that requires its own neutral. Note that the brown/white is neutral for the brown line.m For “EL” option code wiring see Emergency Light Supplement wiring diagram. For additional guidance please refer to NEC 2014 Section 410.64 Part C – Wiring Supplying Luminaires Connected together.
Install the Following Luminaires
- Insert the pin of a new luminaire to the hinge.
- Join 4-pin connectors and 2-pin connectors, then push connectors back into enclosure.
- Additional 3-pin connector for the branch circuit.
- Support fixture by hand while rotating luminaire upwards till joint is flat and clips are engaged.
- Ensure the mounting bracket is properly engaged on both sides of the groove.
- Terminate row with an end cap of a starter kit.
Troubleshooting
Symptom | Solution |
---|---|
The luminaire will not turn on |
- Check that the color of the supply side wires matches the color of the wires they are connected to.
- Check that the LED driver connector is fully engaged to the LED light engine connector.
Luminaire on through wiring will not turn on|
- Check that the through wiring connector from the previous fixture in the linear row is fully engaged to the malfunctioning luminaire.
Luminaires to luminaire mating in the continuous run is loose|
- Ensure that both upper and lower connecting features are correctly engaged.
The suspension method won’t engage with luminaire|
- Check that the suspension method is one of the approved types in the installation instruction.
