Wiring the Device
SHOCK HAZARD: To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect AC power
before connecting or removing AC power wires. Failure to heed this warning
may cause serious injury or death.
1. Install this device by a qualified electrician in accordance with local and national
electrical codes (NEC/CEC).
2. Make the supply connections directly to the terminal 3-postion terminal block
located internally on the back wall of the housing. The Informer-IP has a universal
input that can be connected to a 115 V line and neutral, or to two 115 V lines.
3. Route the supply wires (10 AWG to 16 AWG) into the housing.
4. Strip a maximum of 0.28 inch (7 mm) of insulation from the ends of the power leads.
Coil any excess wire and secure under the terminal block to avoid contact with other
wiring and components.
5. Connect the wires to the terminal block by inserting the stripped ends of the wires
into the connectors as far as they can travel.
• Connect the earth ground to the terminal block position G.
• Connect the line (hot, L1) wire to position L.
• Connect the neutral or the L2 wire to position N.
6. Tighten the clamping screw. The maximum tightening torque is 7.0 in-lb (0.8 N • m).
7. Connect the earth ground to the terminal block.
8. Route the Ethernet cable into the housing using the supplied rubber grommet.
9. Optional: If installing an LP1 strobe, do the following:
• Find the loose wires for the LP1 strobe.
• Attach the stripped black wire to the LP1 strobe negative (-) terminal.
• Tighten the clamping screw. The maximum tightening torque is 7.0 in-lb
(0.8 N • m).
• Attach the red wire to the positive (+) terminal.
• Run the wires through the rubber gasket and through the top of the Informer-IP
Wall Mount.
• Attach the LP1 strobe to the top if the Informer-IP Wall Mount using the LP1
supplied hardware.
• Attach the red and black wires to the connectors inside the Informer-IP Wall
Mount.
