Setup and Installation
This integrated LED downlight is designed for easy installation in both new construction and remodel applications, eliminating the need for traditional recessed cans. The remote junction box provides flexibility for placement.
- Turn Off Power: Before starting, ensure the power to the circuit where you will install the light is turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
- Prepare Opening: Cut a circular hole in the ceiling at the desired location. Refer to the product specifications for the exact cutout diameter (typically 3 inches for this model). Ensure there are no obstructions like joists or pipes within the ceiling space.
- Position Junction Box: The remote metal junction box can be placed in the ceiling cavity. Its compact design allows it to be positioned away from beams or other potential obstructions.
- Make Electrical Connections:
- Open the junction box cover.
- Connect the house wiring (hot, neutral, ground) to the corresponding wires inside the junction box using appropriate wire connectors (e.g., wire nuts).
- Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated.
- Close the junction box cover securely.
- Insert Downlight: Gently push the spring-loaded clips on the sides of the downlight upwards. Insert the downlight into the prepared ceiling hole. Once the light is in the hole, release the clips; they will spring outwards and hold the fixture securely against the ceiling.
- Test: Restore power at the circuit breaker and test the light fixture.
