6 • Wiring the Fan
All wiring must be in accordance with national and local electrical
codes and ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are unfamiliar with wiring, use a
qualified electrician.
6-1. Make sure the power is still off.
6-2. To connect the wires, hold the bare metal leads together and place
a wire nut over them, then twist clockwise until tight. For all these
connections use the wire nuts provided.
CAUTION:
Be sure no bare wire or wire strands are visible after
making connections.
6-3. Connect the ground wire from the ceiling to the green ground
wire from the ceiling plate and the green ground wire from the
downrod or low profile washer.
6-4. Using the large wire connector, connect the white wire and the
black wire from the ceiling as follows:
• The white (common) power wire from the ceiling to the white
wire from the receiver (marked on red tag “NEUTRAL IN”)
• The black power wire from the ceiling to the black wire from
the receiver (marked on red tag “LIVE IN”)
6-5. Using the small wire connector, connect the wires from the fan as
follows:
• The black wire from the fan to the black wire from the receiver
(marked on white tag “FAN”)
• The white wire from the fan to the white wire from the receiver
(marked on white tag “LIGHT AND FAN COMMON”)
• The black/white wire from the fan to the black/white wire from
the receiver (marked on white tag “LIGHT OUT”)
6-6. Check each connection to make sure no bare wire or wire strands
are visible. Push all wires and wire nuts back through the ceiling
plate hole into the outlet box.
6-7. Run the white antenna wire from the receiver through one of the
slots in the ceiling plate so that it rests between the ceiling plate
and the ceiling. Push it to the edge of the ceiling plate for clear
reception.
