Installation Guide
**See illustration above as reference. Dashed lines are a representation of approximate wire locations, each installation will vary.**
• Run wire from your transformer to the location of your rst post.
Note: Do not plug in transformer until all wires are run.
• Wiring will go up the post to your rst lighting xture. Drill a minimum 1/2”hole through the deck board to allow
passage of the wiring through the board and into the post.
Tip: Laying post on its side prior to attaching to deck will allow for easier installation of wire. Use a sh tape or equivalent
to pull wire to the top of the post. Tape wire to the top of post.
• Once wire is installed into rst post, stand the post upright and secure into place. (Plumb as necessary)
• From the rst lighting xture, run a 9’Quick Connect Cable into the post and through the top rail to the next light.
Continue this method until all lights are connected. (Brackets and posts need to be drilled to run wire)
Note: Wiring cannot be run through the top rail of stairs. For stairs, wiring should be run up the posts.
• Once lights are all connected, plug transformer into GFI protected 115V outlet and check to ensure all lights are illuminated,
if any lights have not illuminated unplug transformer and check connections. Once all lights are working properly
securely attach caps to the post.
