AC power
Warning! Read “Safety Information” on page 3 before attempting to
install this product. Lock out power to the entire installation before
working on cables and connections or removing any cover.
Warning! Electrical installation must be carried out by qualified
professionals only.
Warning! Do not exceed the maximum length specified under
“Maximum interconnected length per power input” on page 43 for a
line of Extube fixtures connected to each other and supplied with
power via one input cap, or you will overload the power cable and
other components and create a serious safety risk.
Warning! The electrical equipment and cable used to supply an
Extube system with power must be in perfect condition, adequately
dimensioned for current requirements and cable run lengths, and
suitable for the installation environment, particularly with regard to
water, pollution, thermal and UV resistance.
Warning! For protection from dangerous electric shock, the fixture
must be grounded (earthed). The AC mains power distribution
system must be fitted with both current overload and ground-fault
(earth-fault) circuit breakers, as well as a means to isolate fixtures
from power and lock out power during service.
Important! Do not connect the Extube to an electrical dimmer
system. Doing so can damage the electronics.
If you require help in planning or dimensioning the power distribution
system, please contact your Martin supplier for assistance.
If there is a break or cut at any point in a cable (for example at a
connection point), and if this is exposed to water, moisture can be drawn
up the inside of the cable due to the vacuum effect of temperature
fluctuations during operation. Ensure that the fixture is protected from the
entry of water via the power cable by using IP65-rated connectors or
junction boxes, or by protecting connectors with weatherproof housings.
The Extube does not have a power on/off switch. Power is applied to the
fixture as soon as it is connected to power.
AC mains power voltage and frequency
The Extube accepts AC power at 100 - 120 and 200 - 240 V nominal, at
50 or 60 Hz. Do not connect the fixture to power at any other voltage or
frequency.
