WIRING
We strongly encourage a licensed electrician install this product,in all locations especially in outdoor areas
where weatherproofing may be required. Universal voltage driver permits operation at 12 Volts AC or DC.
Warning: Check product label for correct input voltage!
Attach supply line wires to the appropriate light fixture wires as shown
in thediagram 
Secure each pair of wires according to the diagram. Utilize a junction box or
similar device and take precautionary steps for weatherproofing all
connections if installed in a location where water may come in contact with the
unit. Ensure the unit is properly grounded and that wiring is done according to
all local and national electrical/building codes.
Exp Cord Cap
Position device near work area for operation. Run cable to nearby power source. Insert and twist-lock explosion-proof
plug into a compatible receptacle within the hazardous environment. See plug operation below.
PLUG OPERATION
Electrical connection between plug and compatible receptacle is accomplished after plug fully inserts into receptacle
and rotated clockwise.
1. Lift receptacle door and locate polarization on mating plug pin and receptacle face. Insert plug
straight all the way into receptacle until it cannot go further.
2. Rotate plug clockwise limit (37º), this closes internal contacts and completes circuit. This also
mechanically locks plug into receptacle so it cannot be pulled out.
3. To remove plug, push plug inward and turn to counterclockwise, pull plug straight out.
Low Voltage DC
Connect power to power supply outputting low voltage 12 Volts DC or AC. This variable voltage allows greater
versatility without affecting light output. Ensure deutsch connectors are properly connected (If applicable).
