Caution: Pre-Installation Notes
WARNING: This unit should be installed only by qualified electrical personnel, and in compliance with all national electrical codes, local codes and ordinances.To prevent possible personal injury or death, disconnect power to the enclosure at the breaker box before attempting to work with any AMX Lighting modules.
• All Class 1 and 2 wiring must be connected to their dedicated terminals. |
• Class 1 wiring should be connected through the top of the enclosure, and Class |
2 wiring through the bottom. |
• Load conductors must be same size as line conductors, regardless of |
connected load. |
• Disconnect power while installing or connecting the unit. |
• Keep top and bottom air vents clear at all times, and maintain 12” (30.48 cm) |
