Installing and testing the PS Soloist
Please read this leafl et completely before getting started.
The PS Soloist is a 15 amp receptacle designed to be mounted inside a deep
double J-box. A double J-box is a two receptacle wide junction box. The PS Soloist
provides AC cleaning and surge and spike protection to connected equipment.
Installing this receptacle may be complicated. Make sure you understand basic wiring principals and techniques. Make sure you can
interpret wiring diagrams and have circuit wiring experience.
Please consult a qualifi ed electrician with any questions or concerns.
1. Turn the power OFF
Plug an electrical device such as a lamp or radio, into the receptacle on which you are working. Turn the lamp or radio on and verify it
has power. Then, go to the electrical service panel. Find the breaker or fuse that protects that receptacle. Place the breaker in the
OFF
position or completely remove the fuse. The lamp or radio must turn off.
Next, plug in and turn
ON
the lamp or radio at the receptacle’s other outlet to make sure the power’s off at both
outlets. If the power is not
OFF
, stop work and call an electrician to complete the installation.
2. Identify the cables or wires.
Important:
DO NOT
install the Soloist receptacle in an electrical box containing (a) more than four (4) wires (not
including the ground wires) or (b) cables with more than two (2) wires (not including the ground wire). Contact a
qualifi ed electrician if either (a) or (b) are true.
If you are replacing an old receptacle or electrical device, pull it out of the electrical box without disconnecting the
wires.
Once removed, disconnect the wires so you have easy access to them.
