Signal
Area Light
ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION PROCEDURE:
*refer to the Signal Area Light Anchor kit installation guide for setting the pole anchors.
Concrete should be fully cured before installing the pole.*
BASIC INSTALLATION STEPS:
1. Attach line hook-up wires to driver.
2. Attach luminaire wires to driver wires.
3. Install luminaires.
4. Install driver plate assembly.
5. Install top cap or finial.
6. Install pole assembly onto previously installed anchors.
To install cool splice connector:
1. See Fig. 10. Insert unstripped line and neutral wires into the holes on one end of the
cool splice connector. Make sure wires extend all the way to the middle of the
connector for proper function.
2. Once both wires on one side are fully inserted, press in the blue button on that side
of the connector. This can be done with pliers. Once the top of the blue button is
flush with the rest of the connector, the process is complete.
3. Repeat for the other side of the connector, aligning the same wire color across the
connector.
PROCEDURE FOR WIRING SIGNAL LED LUMINAIRES:
The wiring schematics are to be used to connect the unit to line voltage. It is the
responsibility of the installer to make sure that all connections are made in accordance
with the NEC and local building codes. Connection hardware not included. Signal 24
luminaires have 18 modules and are connected to 50W drivers. Signal 32 luminaires have
24 modules and are connected to 96W drivers.
The driver output wires are connected to the luminaire wires using a permanent cool
splice connector. This is a one-time use device, so make sure the wires are routed properly
before installing the connector. See Fig. 10.
Install the shorting cap to test the light:
Units that have a twist lock receptacle installed must have a shorting cap (included)
installed in order to test the light. Alternatively, a photo control (not included) could be
installed and the eye portion covered to activate the luminaire.
Hook up to power source:
Connect the line voltage wires at the bottom of the pole. Refer to wiring diagrams for
incoming power supply requirements.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
:
1. Route the line voltage wires (provided by others) up the pole and through the
grommet at the bottom of the driver plate assembly. See Fig. 5.
2. Connect the wires to the driver plate terminal block as shown in Fig. 8.
3. For luminaires that are mounted at the top of the pole, route the wires from the
luminaire through the raceway of the mount bracket on the pole and pull the
wires out of the top of the pole. See Fig. 4.
4. For luminaires that are mounted at 12 ft on the 20ft and 25ft poles, pull the driver
wires through the raceway on the lower mount bracket.
5. Connect the luminaires to the drivers using the cool splice connectors (included),
see “to install cool splice connector” instructions and Fig. 10.
6. Gently pull the wires back through the raceway from the top of the pole.
7. Gently slide the luminaire over the mount bracket while keeping tension on the
wires so they do not get pinched between the luminaire and the mount bracket.
8. Align the two holes of the luminaire with the two threaded holes on the mount
bracket and insert a 3/8 washer and 3/8 button head cap screw in each hole.
9. Hand tighten both screws before using a 7/32” hex key to fully tighten.
10. Once connections are secure, gently lower the driver plate assembly into the pole.
Push excess output wires down into the pole. Align the driver mount plate holes
with the threaded holes in the pole. See Fig. 5.
11. Attach the driver plate to the top of the pole using two #8-32 screws. One screw
will be used to attach a grounding lug. For twist-lock option, the other screw must
attach a grounding tab, see Fig. 9. Make sure the two 5/16” diameter threaded
holes are lined up with the holes in the driver assembly plate before tightening
the screws. For twist-lock option, connect like-colored wires from the driver plate
to the pole cap or finial wires using the spade connectors. Tuck excess wires into
pole. Twist-lock receptacle is factory installed in the top cap or finial.
12. For poles with one luminaire, the bent handle on the driver plate assembly should
be installed on the same side as the luminaire. See Fig. 7.
13. Lower the top cap or finial into position. See Fig. 7 for finial orientation.
14. Using a 3/16” hex key, install the hardware as shown in Fig. 6.
15. Lift the light pole into position over the installed anchors as shown in Fig. 1.
Ensure that the base plate is resting on all four washers.
16. Install washer and hex nut as shown in Fig. 2.
17. Plumb and level the pole and tighten all anchors.
18. Install the nut covers as shown in Fig. 3.
19. Connect line wires and ground at the bottom of the pole through the hand hole,
using appropriate connectors (not included).
