AC Power

Warning!

Verify that the power requirement label on your unit matches the line voltage

 

applied. All fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.

 

To determine the power requirements for a particular fixture, see the label affixed to the back plate

 

of the fixture or refer to the fixture’s specifications chart.

 

A fixture’s listed current rating is its average current draw under normal conditions.

 

All fixtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit and cannot be run off a rheostat

 

(variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel is used solely for a 0%

 

to 100% switch.

 

Before applying power to a fixture, check that the source voltage matches the fixture’s

 

requirement.

 

All fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.
