taking into consideration the latest Building Regulations. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
•Before commencing any installation or maintenance work, ensure electricity is switched off at the mains.
•Please take note of the maximum rated voltage for your luminaire.
•Please take note of the IP (Ingress Protection) rating of your luminaire when deciding location.
•Always allow sufficient slack in the supply cable in order to remove the luminaire from its position for any future
maintenance.
•Please take note of the maximum lamp wattage for your luminaire as detailed on the product label.
•Ensure that ALL electrical connections are tight with no loose strands, including factory made connections.

GENERAL INSTALLATION - SAFETY
When positioning your luminaire, please take note that outdoor electrical installations should be installed by qualified
electricians. Electrical equipment in the garden can be lethal if incorrectly installed or if inadequate provisions have been
made in the event of an equipment fault. Water is the main threat. It can seep in through joints and gaskets; it can be drawn
into electrical enclosures by capillary action; and it can penetrate ageing materials which corrode, crack or are damaged by
wildlife, pets, children, careless gardening or just time. Water conducts electricity and as the ground is usually damp to
some extent, the contact of human feet with the ground is all that is needed to provide a fatal route for electrical current.
Proper circuit protection for all exterior electrical services should include a residual current device (RCD), also known as an
earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB). This simple device ensures that the power is cut off immediately; it detects a leakage
of current to earth, which indicates an electrical fault which is potentially threatening to life. Observe these few simple rules
and keep your outdoor electrical installation safe.

INSTALLATION
1. When positioning your luminaire, please take note of the IP Rating
2. Beware of existing water pipes and electric cables when preparing the site.
3. Always switch off mains supply when installing or re-positioning your luminaire.
4. When dismantling your luminaire, take note of the orientation and position of key components.
5. Never install your luminaire in a dip in the ground or in an area of localised flooding. This is to avoid pooling of water over
the top of the glass.
6. These ground recessed luminaires are supplied with a mounting sleeve. When installing the mounting sleeve of the
luminaire into the ground, always prepare a minimum of 30cm of gravel under the sleeve housing to allow for drainage
7. Secure the mounting sleeve into position using concrete or cement. Ensure sleeve is not distorted by the concrete or
cement, it must remain round.
8. Use 3-core 0.75mm2rubber insulated cable (H05RN-F) for connection. Always allow sufficient slack in the supply cable to
allow removal of the luminaire from its mounting sleeve for maintenance.
9. The 240V mains input connections are in the base of the luminaire and is accessed by removing the 4 Allen bolts on the
base enclosure. Two cable glands are available in the base for loop in loop out wiring. If using only one entry gland, the
other gland must be sealed completely to stop water ingress.
10. Connect the mains supply into the terminal block as follows:
•LIVE – (Red or Brown) to terminal marked ‘L’
•NEUTRAL – (Black or Blue) to terminal marked ‘N’
•EARTH – (Green & Yellow) to terminal marked
11. Replace the base enclosure, ensure that the seal is intact and located correctly and the Allen bolts are fully tightened.
Ensure that the cable glands are tight.
12. To install the lamp.
•Remove the top bezel (4 Allen bolts).
•Remove the 1st Glass lens (4 cross head screws)
•Remove the 2nd Glass lens (use a screwdriver to gently raise the edge of the glass and lift out).
•Carefully insert the lamp take care not to touch the glass with bare hands.
13. Replace the inner and outer glass lenses - check all seals and glass are intact and seated correctly. When securing the
bezel back on top of the luminaire, tighten the first screw and then the opposite screw to distribute even pressure.
14. Turn on mains supply and test luminaire.
