GENERAL INFORMATION
1) A qualified electrician, in accordance with IEE wiring regulations, should carry
out connection to mains wiring.
2) Ensure that the rated voltage and frequency requirements are compatible with
the available mains supply.
3) Cleaning of reflectors and lenses should be carried out using clean, soft and
lint free cloths and anti-static cleaning fluid
4) Do not carry out high voltage insulation test, i.e. 500/1000v this may damage
internal components.
5) We recommend use of a high temperature Copper Paste on all screws that
need to be accessed during maintenance process, this will prolong the life of
the fixings and reduce the force required to remove the screws.

Installation Sequence
1. Identify the locations for luminaires and driver. A maximum
of 4 luminaires can be operated from one driver.
2. Prepare a suitably sized hole for each luminaire with
sufficient drainage below.
3. Run cables suitable for outdoor use between driver and
luminaire(s) in a trench. Cables should be protected in line
with the latest IEE regulations.
4. Wiring should be in line with Figure 3 opposite.
5. Remove the luminaire from its packaging, making sure all
products are in good condition before installing.
6. Undo the 3 screws on the front face of the luminaire and
then 2 further screws inside and lift out the led module and
bracket.
7. Pull in a 2 core cable (max 4mm²) through the grommet on
the side of the luminaire which will be wired into the
connection block later. Continue the wiring on to other
luminaires in the circuit if required follow the wiring diagram,
(Fig 4). The cable’s outer sheath should be cut back just
inside the luminaire and the 2 individual cores left long.
8. Locate the luminaire housing into the prepared hole and
pour concrete to fill the hole. The luminaire is supplied with a
plastic levelling disc which can be removed once the
concrete has set. Ensure all cable is in place before pouring
in the concrete. See Fig. 3
9. Wire the 2 core cable into the connection block (Fig 4).
10. Replace the LED module and bracket using the 2 screws
removed earlier.
Each Marine LF luminaire is shipped in two
separate packages:

11. Replace the outer frame using the 3 Allen screws, tightening
gradually and in sequence. Ensure the gasket is clear of any dirt or
debris to maintain a watertight seal. (Power tools must not be used

points in the back of the box if required. Ensure any screw holes
are protected from water ingress using appropriate seals.
13. Bring the 2 core cable from the luminaire(s) into the driver
housing through the side grommet and wire into the connection
block. (Fig.2)
14. Bring a 3 core mains supply into the driver housing and wire
into the connection block and isolate the earth cable in a secure
and safe manner.
15. Close the driver housing, ensuring the seals are clean and free
of debris using the correct sequence of tightening so the seal is
correct.
