•Turn off power at fuse box before installing track.
•Instructions for grounding must be followed. Failure to do so may result in a hazardous condition.
•Use only #12 ga. solid copper wire in connectors to maintain proper track rating.
•Do not supply Advent Track from two separate 120V branch circuits as this could overload the neutral track conductor leading to an electrical safety hazard.
•Observe polarity, white (neutral) wire must be connected to terminal marked "NEUT". Failure to observe Polarity may result in an electrical hazard.
Stem mounting kits (18" or 48" long) may be attached to the track at any point and may be spaced up to 4' apart. They may be used to feed power into the track.
