INSTALLATION

WARNING:
OUTPUT LEADS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION, INVERTER CONNECTOR MUST BE OPEN. DO NOT JOIN
INVERTER CONNECTOR UNTIL INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE AND AC POWER IS SUPPLIED TO
THE EMERGENCY BALLAST.
NOTE:
STEP #1
INSTALLING THE EMERGENCY BALLAST
> Disconnect AC power from the fixture.
> Depending on the type of fixture in use install emergency ballast using one of the methods illustrated
below. Mount the emergency ballast on top of the fixture. The emergency ballast may be remotely
installed up to 1/2 the distance the AC ballast manufacturer recommends remoting the AC ballast from
the lamp, or up to 50 feet, whichever is less.
INSTALLING THE ILLUMINATED TEST SWITCH (ITS) (PROVIDED UPON REQUEST ONLY)
STEP #2
(OPTIONAL)
> Please refer to the Illuminated Test Switch (ITS) installation instructions (provided with ITS) and skip
steps #3 and #4.
STEP #3
INSTALLING THE TEST SWITCH
> Refer to the illustrations above and install the test switch through the ballast channel cover of a
troffer or through the side of a strip fixture.
> Drill a 1/2" hole and install the switch as shown.
> Refer to the wiring diagrams and wire the test switch so that it removes AC power from both the
emergency ballast and the AC ballast at the same time.
TO PREVENT HIGH VOLTAGE FROM BEING PRESENT ON RED & YELLOW
Make sure that the necessary branch circuit wiring is available. An unswitched source of
power is required. The emergency ballast must be fed from the same branch circuit as
the AC ballast.
