Installation Instructions
Please Read Before Installing
Overview
The HRD-6D, -6ND, -10D, -10ND, -5NE dimmers and the
HRD-8ANS switch are for use with HomeWorks systems.
The dimmers and switch may be installed in either single-
pole, 3-way or 4-way applications.
The dimmers may be used with the HD-RD Remote
Dimmer, and the switch may be used with the HD-RS
Remote Switch for control from up to 9 additional
locations.
Important Notes
Codes: Install in accordance with all local and national
electrical codes.
Danger: These controls must not be used to
control equipment which is not visible from
every control location. They must also not be
used to control equipment which could create
hazardous situations such as entrapment if operated
accidentally. Examples of such equipment which must not
be operated by these controls include (but are not limited
to) motorized gates, garage doors, industrial doors,
microwave ovens, heating pads, etc. It is the installer's
responsibility to ensure that the equipment being
controlled is visible from every control location and that
only suitable equipment is connected to these controls.
Overheat Damage: To reduce the risk of overheating and
possibly damaging other equipment, do not install
to control receptacles or motor-operated appliances.
Environment: Ambient operating temperature:
0-40°C, 32-104°F, 0-90% humidity, non-condensing.
Indoor use only. It is normal for dimmers and switches to
feel warm to the touch during operation.
Spacing: If mounting one control above another, leave at
least 4.5" (114mm) vertical space between them.
Lamp Type: -6D, -6ND, -10D and -10ND are designed for
use with permanently installed incandescent, magnetic
low-voltage, or tungsten halogen only. -5NE is designed
for use with permanently installed incandescent or
electronic low-voltage only. -8ANS is designed for use
with all permanently installed lighting loads.
Low-Voltage Applications: Use -6D, -6ND, -10D and
-10ND with magnetic (core and coil) low-voltage
transformers only. Not for use with electronic (solid-state)
low-voltage transformers.
Use -5NE with electronic (solid-state) low-voltage
transformers only. Not for use with magnetic (core and
coil) low-voltage transformers.

Operation of a low-voltage circuit with lamps inoperative
or removed may result in transformer overheating and
premature failure. Lutron strongly recommends the
following:
a. Do not operate low-voltage circuits without operative
lamps in place.
b. Replace burned-out lamps as quickly as possible.
c. Use transformers that incorporate thermal protection
or fused transformer primary windings to prevent
transformer failure due to overcurrent.
