Installing power connectors

If you intend to draw power from convenience receptacles / consumer mains power
sockets, it is possible to install a suitable cord cap / power plug on the supplied power
cord / input cable. If you do this, check that the cord cap / plug is rated minimum
250 V, 16 A, that it has a connection to ground / earth and that it has an integral cable
grip. Follow the cord cap / plug manufacturer's assembly instructions.
If you need to install a Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 connector on a power cable, follow
the instructions given in the Support area of the Neutrik website at www.neutrik.com.
Respect the color coding used in the supplied power cable and in your local mains
power wiring system. US and EU systems use the color coding shown below:

Connecting multiple fixtures to power in a chain

You can connect fixtures to power in a daisy-chain to simplify your power circuit
layout.
FS16Z fixtures have 2.5 mm2 internal wiring from Power IN to Power THRU connectors.
Warning! Do not connect more than three (3) FS16Z fixtures in total to power
in one chain at 100-120 V, 60 Hz. Do not connect more than six (6) FS16Z
fixtures in total to power in one chain at 200-240 V, 50 Hz.
The power input cable supplied with the fixture is rated 16 A maximum. Add
together the maximum current draw ratings of all the devices that you
intend to connect to power in a daisy chain and do not create a chain with
a total maximum current draw of more than 16 A, or you will create a risk of
fire and electric shock.
To connect fixtures to power in a chain:
1.
Obtain power relay cables that have male and female Neutrik powerCON TRUE1
connectors. Cables must be minimum 14 AWG or 1.5mm
and suitable for the environment and application.
2.
Connect the power input cable to the Mains IN socket of the first fixture as
described under 'Connecting to power' on page 29.
3.
Connect a relay cable to the Mains OUT / THRU socket of the first fixture and to the
Mains IN socket of the second fixture.
4.
If you are using 100-120 V, 60 Hz AC mains power you can continue connecting
FS16Z fixtures Mains OUT / THRU socket to Mains IN socket until the chain contains a
maximum of three (3) fixtures in total. If you are using 200-240 V, 50 Hz AC mains
power you can continue connecting fixtures Mains OUT to Mains IN until the chain
contains a maximum of six (6) fixtures total.
