ILC LightLEEDer Operation Manual
Version 1C 3/14/17
This section details the installation of the lightleeDer lighting controller. The proper installation of the hardware and
wiring is important to make a trouble free reliable lighting control system.
2.0 Pre-Installation Check List
■
Unpack the lighting control panel.
■
Report any damage to the freight carrier.
■
Remove the enclosure door and set aside.
■
Determine appropriate mounting location for panel.
■
Mount the panel to the wall.
■
Punch knockout holes for high and low voltage conduit runs.
■
Pull a dedicated line and neutral to the control transformer and terminate.
■
Pull line wires from circuit breaker box to the relays.
■
Pull load wires to lighting loads from the relays.
■
Connect line wires to load wires. Test for shorts by powering up the circuits.
■
After clearing faults, connect line and load wires to relays.
■
Pull CAT5 data line wires to panels and devices and terminate with RJ45 connectors.
■
Test all cables with the appropriate cable tester.
■
Pull any switch wires, dimming wires, or sensor wires and terminate to the appropriate connectors.
■
Clean the cabinet of any construction debris and dust.
■
Double check all high voltage connections.
■
Apply power to the panel
2.1 Mounting the Controller
2.1.1 Location
Determine the proper location for mounting the lighting controller. Typically the panels are mounted
near the lighting circuit breaker box and near the lighting loads that will be controlled.
2.1.2 Environment Considerations
standard lightleeDer panels are installed in a neMA 1 enclosure designed for
indoor applications, where conditions are not usually severe. The panels should be mounted in an area with an ambi-
ent temperature between 0 and 50° C (32°-122°F) and humidity from 10 to 90% non-condensing.
2.1.3 Mounting
The enclosure is provided with 4 holes located at each corner of the enclosure. secure the enclosure
to the mounting surface with the appropriate hardware for the application.
2.2 Wiring the Controller
2.2.1 Wire Control Transformer
Pull a dedicated 120VAC,
277VAC, or 347VAC circuit to the panel for the control
transformer. see figure 2.1 for termination details. Cap the
unused lead to prevent electrical shock.
2.2.2 Line and Load Wires
Pull the line wires from the cir-
cuit breaker box and the wires from the lighting loads to
the enclosure. Be sure to keep the high voltage wires iso-
lated to the high voltage compartment. Connect each line
to the appropriate load wire. Power-up the circuits, test for
faults and clear any found. After testing each circuit, con-
nect the line and load to the appropriate relay per the
schedule. see figure 2.2 for details. Be sure to torque wire
terminations to 20 lb. /in.
