How to Wire Your

Ceiling Fan

If you feel that you do not have enough electrical wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan installed by a licensed electrician.

!WARNING

Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. All wiring must be in accordance with National and Local codes and the ceiling fan must be properly grounded as a precaution against possible electrical shock.

1.If you are going to use an Emerson Remote Control/Receiver or Wall Control/Receiver to operate your ceiling fan, wire your fan in accordance with the Control/Receiver Owner’s Manual. (NOTE: The wire from the uplight harness is orange instead of yellow.) After wiring, return to Step 4 below.

2.If you are going to use two wall switches or Emerson Fan/Light Controls, you will need a three-wire (with ground) conductor cable between the ceiling and wall outlet boxes. This will allow you to operate the uplight and optional Emerson Light Fixture (if installed) from one switch/control and the ceiling fan from a separate switch/control. (Refer to the Emerson Fan/Light Control Owner’s Manual.) Refer to Figure 10 and proceed as follows:

a.Connect the green grounding lead from the hanger ball and the green grounding lead from the hanger bracket to the supply grounding conductor (this may be a bare wire or wire with green colored insulation). Securely connect wires with a wire connector (supplied).

b.Securely connect the fan motor white wire to the supply white (neutral) wire using a wire connector (supplied).

c.Securely connect the fan motor black wire to the supply black (hot) wire using a wire connector (supplied).

d.Securely connect the fan motor blue wire to the supply red (hot) wire using a wire connector (supplied).

e.After connections have been made, separate the white and green wires from the black, blue and red wires.

f.Carefully turn the wires upward and insert them up through the open side of the hanger bracket and into the outlet box. Push the green and white wires into one side of the outlet box; push the black, blue and red wires into the other side of the outlet box.

! WARNING

 

Check to see that all connections are tight,

 

including ground, and that no bare wire is visible

 

at the wire connectors, except for the ground wire.

 

Do not operate fan until blades are in place. Noise

 

and fan damage could result.

3.If you are going to use a single wall switch to control your ceiling fan, uplight, and optional Emerson Light Fixture (if installed) simultaneously, you will need a standard two-wire (with ground) conductor cable between the ceiling and wall outlet boxes. The fan speed and uplight can then be operated from the pull chain switches in the switch housing; the optional light fixture can be operated from the light fixture switch. Refer to Figure 11 and proceed as follows:

aConnect the green grounding lead from the hanger ball and the green grounding lead from the hanger bracket to the supply grounding conductor (this may be a bare wire or wire with green colored insulation). Securely connect wires with a wire connector (supplied).

b.Securely connect the fan motor white wire to the supply white (neutral) wire using a wire connector (supplied).

c.Securely connect the fan motor black wire and blue wire to the supply black (hot) wire using a wire connector (supplied).

d.After connections have been made, separate the white and green wires from the black and blue wires.

e.Carefully turn the wires upward and insert them up through the open side of the hanger bracket and into the outlet box. Push the green and white wires into one side of the outlet box; push the black and blue wires into the other side of the outlet box.

!WARNING
