Making the Electrical
Connections
Connect the fan motor black wire to the supply
black (hot) wire using a wire nut (Figure 13).
Connect the blue wire for light kit to the black
household supply wire.
Turn wire nut connections upward, spreading
them apart so the green (ground) will be on one
side of the outlet box and the white, black and
blue wire will be on the other side, and push
carefully up into the outlet box.

Connect the ground cnductor of the 120V
supply (this may be a bare wire or a wire with
green colored insulation) to the green ground
lead(s) of the fan (Figure 13). When using
standard ceiling mounting, there are two green
grounding leads; one from the ceiling mount-
ing bracket and one from the ball/downrod
assembly. When using “Close-to-Ceiling”
mounting, there is only one green ground lead
from the ceiling mounting bracket since the
ball/downrod assembly is not used.
Connect the fan motor white wire to the supply
white (neutral) wire using a wire nut. (Figure
13)
