GENERAL INSTALLATION - SAFETY
When positioning your luminaire, please take note that outdoor electrical installations should be installed by qualified
electricians. 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.
GENERAL INSTALLATION – LAYING CABLE
Laying electrical cables in the ground may be subject to specific regulations. The aim is to ensure that the cables are buried
deeply enough in the ground to avoid any disturbance which is likely to occur. Where armoured cables can be buried at
adequate depth to avoid being damaged by any reasonable foreseeable disturbance of the ground, they can be laid in a
buffer layer of sand and covered with cable warning tape. Where it is not possible to bury the cables deeply enough because
of the presence of tree roots or unsuitable ground conditions, extra mechanical protection around the cables will be
required. This is usually in the form of plastic ducts or conduits through which the cables are run.
