Installation
Turn o power and remove panel
from uorescent box sign.
Push Line Fit Light into existing
uorescent lamp holders.
Read the product labels to
determine Line Fit Light length
required to span width of
sign based on table in the
Specications section (last page).
Old Fluorescent tube
F48T12HO
or F48T8HO
Remove old uorescent tubes,
ballast and wiring. DO NOT remove
existing uorescent lamp holders.
NOTE: Follow all federal and
local regulations when disposing
of neon tubing, uorescent tubes,
transformers and ballasts.
Remove old components
Continue installing Line Fit Light
xtures.
Orient Line Fit Light so LEDs are facing
front of sign, then pull and twist the
two endcap ttings so they align with
existing uorescent lamp holders.
LEDs face
front of sign
Pull and twist endcap tting

Prior to installation, survey the site for information regarding power and accessibility inside and outside the building. Ensure that the branch
circuit supplying the existing transformer or ballast will be within the voltage ratings of the new LED power supply, and have a current rating not
exceeding 20A, or that permitted by applicable local, state, or country electrical codes (whichever is less).
If removal of the existing lighting equipment (see Step 2) eliminates the disconnect switch, as required by applicable local, state, or country
electrical codes; a new disconnect switch must be installed.
If required, the disconnect switch shall be installed by qualied personnel, in accordance with applicable local, state, and country electrical codes.
Repair and seal any unused openings in the electrical enclosure. Openings greater than 12.7-mm (1/2-in) diameter require a metal patch
secured by screws or rivets and caulked with non-hardening caulk. Smaller openings may be sealed with non-hardening caulk.
NOTE: If component 6 is necessary, refer to 32619 LFL-LED Coupler2 Line Fit Light Coupler-2nd Gen Installation Guide. If component 7 is necessary,

Wire AC line to LED driver(s) in accordance with the
applicable local, state, and country electrical codes.
Connect black to black or brown, white to white or
blue, and green to green using 18 AWG (0.82mm2)
wire connectors.
Add up total footage of the system to determine the
appropriate number of 24VDC Class 2 Tetra®LED
drivers to use based on the Power Supply Loading
chart on last page.
Connect the red stripe wire (+) of the LED system to
the red wire (+) of the power supply. Connect the white
wire (-) of the LED system to the black or blue wire (-) of
the power supply.
Connect Line Fit Lights using twist-on wire connectors or in-line (IDC) connectors. Join white wires together and red
striped wires together. Cap all exposed wires with appropriate end caps or apply electric grade (non-corrosive) silicone for
additional weather protection.
NOTE: Make sure not to exceed LED driver power limits (see Step 1). Drawing above is for reference only; your lighting layout may dier.
NOTE: All electrical connections should be suitably protected from mechanical damage and the environment. Seal all connections in
locations that may be exposed to water with electrical grade RTV silicone.
AC line GEPS24-180
NOTE: All drivers except GEPS24-180U must be installed in a raceway or be provided with a GEPSJB60 LED driver extended enclosure.
If installing multiple LED drivers, keep them at least
2” (50.8mm) apart end to end and 4” (101.6mm)
apart along the sides.
