Power cord Grip
Wiring
Incoming power cable shall be SOW style 3C cable with a minimum of 14-18AWG annealed stranded bare copper per
ASTM B-174 with a minimum temperature range of -40°C to +90°C. Cable must be water resistant, UV rated/sunlight
resistant, UL listed and CSA cer�fied for indoor and outdoor use. Interna�onal applica�ons shall be harmonized (HAR)
or IEC equivalent.
1. Remove cover from junc�on box at the base of the luminaire.
2. Route incoming power cable through the cord grip in the junc�on box cover.
3. Strip outer jacket of incoming power cable back 3” (7cm). Connect the incoming power wires to the fixture power
wires on right side of junc�on box.
Step 4 – Aim The Luminaires
Aiming the luminaires is a cri�cal part of the LED ligh�ng solu�on to ensure that light is evenly distributed on the
playing surface. There are two basic methods to properly aim a sports venue – Precision Laser Aiming by
Coordinates, and Orient-Tilt.
Precision Laser Aiming by Coordinates
Laser aiming is the most effec�ve and preferred technique for aiming LED sports ligh�ng.This method uses a laser
mounted to the luminaire to point the fixture at a predetermined point on the playing surface using (X,Y) coordinates.
Unless otherwise noted, aiming coordinates on photometrics or project Installa�on drawings are based on the
origin (0,0,0) placed at center field, court, or ice. All dimensions from that point are in feet along the playing surface
unless otherwise noted.
The Tilt angle refers to the direc�on the luminaire faces in the Y-plane. When the luminaire is securely mounted to the
structure so that the moun�ng bracket does not move but the side Hex and Set screws are loosened, the fixture may
rotate up inside the moun�ng bracket. Set the luminaire Tilt angle by rota�ng the fixture housing rela�ve to the
luminaire moun�ng bracket.
Orient is a vector in
the z-plane - looking
down from the top
of the luminaire
Orient –�lt
With the Orient-�lt method, the installer turns the luminaire according to predetermined angles.This technique is
extremely helpful for pre-aiming fixtures mounted on a cross arm on the ground before the ligh�ng pole is li�ed up
and set in place. However, this method is less accurate due to the variances in actual final pole and luminaire
loca�ons and orienta�ons compared to the approximated parameters used in the photometric design.
The Orient angle refers to the direc�on the luminaire faces in the Z-plane. In other words, mount the luminaire to the
structure but leave the moun�ng nut slightly loosened to allow the en�re fixture to spin about the moun�ng bolt. Set
the luminaire Orient by rota�ng the luminaire moun�ng bracket rela�ve to the moun�ng structure.
Unless otherwise noted, Orient values shown in photometrics or project Installa�on Drawings are based on 0°
being Plan East. Plan East means 0° is heading to the right side of the sheet as you hold it in front of you, which is
not necessarily geode�c orTrue East.
NEVER connect the fixture’s green insula�on (GROUND) wire to the black (LINE)
current-carrying or white (NEUTRAL) supply wire, as this could energize the metal
housing and create the risk of electrical shock. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING
MAY LEAD TO DEATH, SEVERE INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
WARNING
Do not damage or cut the wire insula�on (covering) during installa�on. Do not permit
wires to contact any surface having a sharp edge, as this may damage the wire
insula�on and create the risk of electrical shock. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING
MAY LEAD TO DEATH, SEVERE INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
