AC power

Warning! Read "Safety Information" on page 5 before attempting to install an
Exterior Wash
working on cables and connections.
Electrical installation must be carried out by qualified professionals only.
For protection from dangerous electric shock, the fixture must be grounded (earthed). The
AC power distribution system must be fitted with current overload and ground-fault (earth-
fault) circuit breakers as well as a means to isolate fixtures from power and lock out power
during service.
Make sure that cables from fixtures open into dry areas (e.g. junction boxes in dry locations). If there is a
break or cut at any point in a cable (for example at a connection point), and if this is exposed to water,
moisture can be drawn up the inside of the cable due to the vacuum effect of temperature fluctuations
during operation. Ensure that the fixture is protected from the entry of water via the power cable by using
IP66-rated connectors or junction boxes, or by protecting connectors with weatherproof housings.
The Exterior Wash
200 Series is supplied in EU and US models. Both models accept AC power at
100-240 V nominal or 277 V nominal at 50 or 60 Hz. Do not connect to power at any other voltage or
frequency.
You can connect the Exterior Wash
phase of a grounded/earthed three-phase four-wire (three phases, neutral, ground/earth) power
distribution system. Do not try to connect to a three-phase three-wire (three phases, ground/earth) system.
There is no power on/off switch. Power is applied to an Exterior Wash
connected to power. Provide a means to disconnect or shut down power to fixtures that is easily
accessible and is located close to the fixtures.
Do not use an external dimming system to supply power to the fixture, as this may cause damage to the
fixture that is not covered by the product warranty.

Connecting to power

The fixture is supplied with a power cable installed ready for connection. See illustration below:
To connect to a single-phase system or to one phase of a three-phase, four-wire system:
1.
Lock out power to the installation.
2.
Connect the conductors in the power cable to the distribution circuit as follows:
a)
Connect the green wire (US models) or yellow/green wire (EU models) to ground (earth).
b)
Connect the white wire (US models) or blue wire (EU models) to neutral.
c)
Connect the black wire (US models) or brown wire (EU models) to live (one phase).
3.
Check that all installation work is completed and carry out appropriate tests and safety checks before
applying power.
