Appendix C: Power Boosters And Load Interfaces - Lutron Electronics PAV6M-120 Installation Manual

Appendix C: Power Boosters and Load Interfaces

This "load-side" equipment installs on the zone wiring between
the Control Unit and the lighting load.
The NGRX-PB increases a Control Unit's zone load capacity
for Incandescent/Halogen (Tungsten), Magnetic Low Voltage,
and Neon/cold Cathode load types.
The ELVI-1000 enables a zone of the Control Unit to control
electronic low-voltage loads.
The FDBI-16A-120 enables a zone on the Control Unit to
operate fluorescent loads outfitted with Lutron's Hi-Lume or
Eco-10 phase-controlled dimming ballasts.

1. Turn off power to the Control Unit and the feed to the PB, ELVI, or FDBI!
2. Mount 2-gang wallbox: 3 1/2 in. (87.5 mm) deep recommended, 2 3/4 in. (68.75 mm)
deep minimum. When mounting several units in a vertical layout (one underneath the
other), allow at least 4 1/2 in. (11 cm) between units.
3. Strip 1/2 in. (12 mm) insulation from #12 (2.5 mm
connect as shown. Please see the Instruction Sheet supplied with the unit for more
detailed wiring diagrams.
