5. Setup and Installation
Follow these steps for safe and proper installation:
- Preparation: Ensure the power supply is turned off at the main circuit breaker before starting any electrical work.
- Mounting the Clips: Use the provided mounting hardware to securely attach the mounting clips to your desired surface (ceiling or wall). Mark the drill points, drill holes, insert wall plugs, and screw the clips into place.
- Attaching the Fixture: Snap the LED TL fixture into the mounted clips. Ensure it is firmly seated.
- Wiring: Open the wiring compartment at one end of the fixture. Connect the live (L), neutral (N), and ground (GND) wires from your power supply to the corresponding terminals inside the fixture. Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated.
- Closing the Compartment: Close the wiring compartment cover securely to maintain the IP65 rating.
