WMX SERIES DIMMER
OPERATING
MANUAL
3.0 Getting
Started
The WMX would normally be wall mounted before any wiring is terminated. Refer to
section
6.0 Installation
for details.
3.1 Connecting
power
The WMX dimmer is supplied with 4 rising clamp terminals for the connection of
incoming mains power and a ring star connector for the incoming protective earth wire.
To gain access to the input terminals, it is first necessary to remove the front cover that
wraps around to the control panel and circuit breaker side of the dimmer, followed by
the socket outlet panel. Note: The earth wire can be removed from the front panel by
means of a spade connector on the bottom right corner of the panel, allowing the panel
to be placed to one side while working on the dimmer.
Connect the incoming mains power cables to the rising clamp terminals on the lower
right side of the main circuit board. The three phase conductors shall be connected to
the terminals marked
Active A1
,
Active A2
and
Active A3
. The neutral conductor shall
be connected to the terminal marked
Neutral
. It is important that the ends of the
conductors go under the circuit board between the flat of the rising clamp and the
copper bracket on the circuit board.
Do not screw down directly onto the wire.
Figure 3.1 Mains Power Termination
To connect the earth wire, strip the insulation back approximately 35mm, wrap the bare
end around the supplied star lug and crimp with pliers (Figure 3.2). Secure crimped
earth wire to stud using supplied washers and nut (Figure 3.3).
