Step 2: Wiring the Light
First, identify your household wiring using current Building Regulations and IEE Wiring Regulations. Connect the wall light wiring to your household supply, as illustrated, using an appropriate junction box. The diagram shows household mains (220-240V IN) connecting to the light. The green/yellow (Earth) wire connects to the Earth terminal, the brown or red (L) wire connects to the L terminal, and the blue or black (N) wire connects to the N terminal. The earth wire is shown attached to Part A of the wall light.

Step 3: Securing the Light Fixture
Align part A (the main light fixture) onto part B (the wall bracket). Ensure the grub screws (D) are loosened to allow part A to sit flush against the wall. Once aligned, tighten the grub screws to secure the fixture in place.
