Installation Tips
- Safety first: Turn power OFF before installing or servicing. Proper grounding is required, and wiring must follow NEC and applicable local codes.
- Tenon fit: The tenon pole adaptor fits 3" or 2 3/8" diameter tenons; use the ALED sleeve when needed for a better fit on 2 3/8" tenons.
- Secure mounting: Ensure housing clips are properly engaged to the rods and tighten the set screws (3) to secure rods at the tenon pole adaptor.
- Strain relief: Use UL-approved connectors and knot wires for strain relief during pole mounting.
- Line wiring: Connect black to LINE, white to COMMON, and ground to supply ground.
- 0-10V dimming (when equipped): For models ordered with a 0-10V dimming option, connect purple to V+ and pink/gray to V-. Cap the yellow lead if present and do not connect. Use control wires rated 300V minimum.
