1. Turn the LumiPower light onto its cover to view
the underside and connection port.
2. Remove the red protective cap from the
cable plug. Discard the three screws and the
O-Rings.
3. Remove the light engine from its packaging.
Insert the two O-Rings (from kit P/N 20350)
into the grooves on the back of the light
and double-check that they are positioned
correctly, as shown in Figures 1 and 2.
4. Align the plug with the socket on the light and
use the three screws (from kit P/N 20350) to
attach the plug securely to the light. Tighten
these screws firmly by hand only; do not use a
power tool. See Figure 2.
NOTE: Plug and socket can only be engaged in one
position as depicted. Before applying any force
to the plug and socket, check both parts are
aligned as shown in Figure 2.

5. Double check that the cable gland inside the
niche is tightened. Coil the remaining cable
into the niche, leaving enough spare cable
in the niche to be able to bring the light (with
cable attached) above the waterline. This
allows for easy servicing at a later date.
6. Locate the “TOP” marking on the rear of the
light. See Figure 1.
NOTE: All of the preset screws in this product are
tightened to precise torques during the
manufacturing process. Please DO NOT
tighten any screws as permanent product
damage may result!

the screw holes of the light to those in the
mounting ring.
8. Using the three screws (from kit P/N13529),
attach the light and dress ring to the niche
using a manual screw driver. Do not over-
tighten, as using power tools may cause
damage. Before filling the pool check the
light is functioning by switching it on for a few
seconds. See Figure 3.

screw hole at the top and the protruding tab at
the bottom. See Figure 5.
11. Insert the protruding tab into the slot at the
bottom of the mounting plate by holding the
light at an angle to the wall. Verify the fit, then
seat the light into the mounting plate. Re-insert
the original retaining screw to hold the light in
position. Do not over-tighten, as using power
tools may cause damage.

Section 5. Existing Pool Retrofit
The LumiPower Light has been designed to be
compatible with other light vendors’ mounting
methods. Installing your new LumiPower light will
require two main steps:
1. Mount the light into the existing hardware;
2. Join the LumiPower power cable to the
existing power cable.
5.1 Concrete and Fiberglass Niche
Installation
1. Remove the old light from the concrete or
fibreglass niche.
2. Test fit the new LumiPower light by
following the steps for Section 4.1. If your
new Lumipower light fits, proceed with the
installation. If the light doesn’t fit, please
contact Zodiac for further advice.
NOTE: DO NOT SUBMERGE the LumiPower light into
pool water unless it has the cable fitted.
3. Follow the steps in Section 5.3 to join the
LumiPower power cable to the existing power
cable.
4. Perform final installation of the Lumipower
light.
5.2 Flush Mount Installation
1. Remove the old light and flush mounting plate
from the pool wall. As LumiPower lights will fit
directly onto some existing mounting plates,
trial fit the LumiPower light to the mounting
plate.
If the light fits, then the old mounting plates
can be reused if they are in good condition. If
the existing mounting plate can’t be used, then
it can be used as a pattern to drill mounting
and cable holes in the LumiPower mounting
plate.
NOTE: DO NOT SUBMERGE the LumiPower light into
pool water unless it has the cable fitted.
2. Follow Section 4.2 instructions, which
will guide you through installing your new
Lumipower light.
3. Follow the steps in Section 5.3 to join the
LumiPower power cable to the existing power
cable.
4. Perform final installation of the LumiPower
light.
5.3 Lumipower 2.5m Cable Connection
1. If necessary, cut off the old connector from
the existing power cable. Trim the supplied
Lumipower power cable so that, once joined,
the new combined power cable has sufficient
length to be able to reach above the surface
of the water. This allows easier installation and
servicing. Excess cable can be removed if
desired.
2. Trim the ends of both of the cables to be
joined as shown. Note that if either cable has
solder on the cables this section should be cut
off so that the bare wires are exposed.
3. Ensure that the cables to be joined are clean
and dry in the area around the proposed joint.
If the cable isn’t clean, it may be possible to
trim the cable until a clean area is reached.
Otherwise, the cable can be lightly rubbed with
sandpaper to remove concrete residues etc.

4. Slide the heat-shrink tube onto the longest
cable and well away from the joint. This tube
has to be kept clear of the solder splices when
they are being heated. See Figure 7.
5. Fit one of the solder splices to each of the two
wires of the old cable. See Figure 8.

7. Using a heat gun on Medium to High heat,
gently heat the centre of the solder splices
until the solder ball melts and runs into the
wire. Take care to only heat around the solder
ball as excess heat can damage the cable.
Check that the red seals next to the solder
balls have also melted. See Figure 10.

8. Slide the heat-shrink tube over the joint,
ensuring that the heat-shrink tube covers each
end of the joint evenly and start to heat the
tubing from the centre outwards. Continue
to heat the centre until the tube starts to
decrease in size.
9. Continue heating the heat-shrink tube towards
the ends but be CAREFUL not to heat the
cables directly as they can be DAMAGED. See
Figure 11.

11. Leave the completed joint to COOL for five
(5) minutes to ensure that the glue seal isn’t
damaged. Once cooled, momentarily power
the light to confirm that the connection is
sound.
