operation of this product. Please retain these instructions for future reference.
Layout
Plan the desired layout of these fittings carefully, ensuring the cables will reach the distances between the junction box and the
each light fitting.
Avoid locating any cables in positions that would cause a hazard. Position cables and outdoor rated junction boxes
(not supplied) away from areas where they may be at risk from being cut, trapped or damaged.
We recommend that you use H05RN-F specification cable (not supplied) which is an outdoor grade, rubber sheathed cable.
The mains supply cable must have a minimum cross section area of 1.0mm2.
Cables must be protected using suitable conduit or plastic trunking.
Commissioning
Installation
This light fitting is double insulated and does
not require connection to an Earth circuit.
Existing fittings must be completely removed before installation of a new product. Before removing the existing fitting, carefully
note the position of each set of wires.
Note that the switch is turned off before installation.
Ensure that the screws and cable entry points are sealed to maintain the IP rating of the product.
After deciding the layout of the light fittings ensure that the cables are long enough to connect to desired positions.
• Determine the position of your light fitting taking into account the entry position of the cable and the ARROW indicating
which WAY UP the base is to be fitted. Make sure there is sufficient cable coming out of the wall to connect to the terminal
block. Ensure that the mounting surface is solid, preferably a brick or block wall and ensure that there are no other cables
or pipes beneath the surface.
• Diagram A. Fit the 2 threaded posts in the back plate and bring the mains cable through the rubber grommet then use the
back plate as a template and mark the 2 fixings holes, making sure the back plate is correctly aligned so that the threaded
bolts are horizontal. Use appropriate fixings to secure the back plate to the wall. Ensuring the drain hole is at the base
of the mounting box.
• Diagram B. Connect the house wiring to the internal terminal block. The cable entry grommet must be securely in place to
ensure that the water ingress protection is maintained. NOTE: This is a Class II fitting and must not be earthed. If you
have any earth cables make sure that they are connected to each other – to maintain earth continuity throughout your
property – and wrap the earth terminal and connections in 2 layers of good quality insulation tape and keep them
away from the terminal connections of the fitting. Connect the incoming mains as per the diagram.
Having correctly identified the wiring from your light fitting, connect to the approved outdoor rated external terminal block in

• Diagram C. Fit the terminal block onto the post in the back plate and then
fit the front frame over the 2 threaded bolts in the back plate and secure with
the 2 threaded nuts. Take care not to trap or strain the internal cables.
• Fit the appropriate bulbs into the lamp holders NOTE: Never fit bulbs of a
higher wattage than specified on the label (as this may cause overheating
and damage the fitting).
• Replace the bulb covers (1).
• Replace fuse or circuit breaker and switch on. Your light is now ready for use.
