NIGHT SCAN POWERLITE, POWERLITE XTREME, AND POWERLITE HDT
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: The use of 8 gauge wires provide minimal voltage drop, especially for 12 VDC
lights. The circuit protection should be sized for the required amperage of the lights, not two 8-
gauge wires.

Total Watts
Example 1 500 W
Example 2 1500 W
It is the responsibility of the installer to provide over-current protection for both lighting circuits.
The over-current protection on each circuit should be sized for the calculated current draw for the
installed lights (and not based on wire size current capacity). It is also the responsibility of the
installer to provide a means to remove/isolate power from the mast light circuits and permit the
operator to follow proper lock-out tag-out procedures for maintenance or troubleshooting.
There are two inputs on the base Board: LEFT POWER and RIGHT POWER. To wire the Light
Power to the Base Board:
1. If AC, connect the light power to TB1 terminal block (RIGHT POWER) and TB2 (LEFT
POWER).
