Installation Guide
Follow these steps to install your pendant light. It is recommended to have two people for installation.
Tools Required:
- Screwdriver
- Wire Strippers
- Electrical Tape
- Ladder
Installation Steps:
- Turn Off Power: Before starting, ensure the power supply to the installation area is turned off at the circuit breaker.
- Prepare Mounting Plate: Attach the mounting plate to the junction box in the ceiling using the provided screws. Ensure it is securely fastened.

Loosen the small screw at the base of the canopy to adjust the cord length, then tighten it to secure the cord. Ensure the cord is set to the desired length before proceeding, as adjustments after mounting can be difficult.

Typically, connect the black wire from the fixture to the black (live) wire from the ceiling, the white wire from the fixture to the white (neutral) wire from the ceiling, and the ground wire to the ground wire from the ceiling. Secure connections with wire nuts and electrical tape.
- Mount Canopy: Carefully push the wires into the junction box and align the ceiling canopy with the mounting plate. Secure the canopy to the mounting plate using the provided screws.
- Install Glass Lampshade: Gently screw the frosted glass lampshade onto the fixture. Do not overtighten.
