AC power 

 

 

Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before 
connecting the fixture to AC mains power. 

Warning! The mains power input cable supplied with the 
fixture is rated 6 A and can supply only one fixture with 
mains power. Do not connect any device to the fixture’s 
MAINS OUT power throughput socket when using this input 
cable. If you want to connect other fixtures to the MAINS 
OUT socket, see ‘Linking fixtures to power in a chain’ on 
page 13. 

For protection from electric shock, the fixture must be grounded 
(earthed). The power distribution circuit must be equipped with a 
fuse or circuit breaker and ground-fault (earth-fault) protection.  

Socket outlets or external power switches used to supply the 
fixture with power must be located near the fixture and easily 
accessible so that the fixtures can easily be disconnected from 
power. 

Do not insert or remove live Neutrik PowerCon connectors to apply or cut 
power, as this may cause arcing at the terminals that will damage the 
connectors.  

Do not use an external dimming system to supply power to the fixture, as this 
may cause damage to the fixture that is not covered by the product warranty.  

The fixture can be hard-wired to a building electrical installation if you want to 
install it permanently, or a power plug (not supplied) that is suitable for the 
local power outlets can be installed on the power cable.  
If you install a power plug on the power cable, install a grounding type 
(earthed) plug with integral cable grip that is rated minimum 250 V, 6 A. Follow 
the plug manufacturer’s instructions and connect the wires in the power cable 
as shown in this table: 

 

Live or L 

Neutral or N 

Earth, Ground or   

US system 

Black White 

Green 

EU system 

Brown Blue  Yellow/green 

The fixture has an auto-ranging power supply that accepts AC mains power at 
100-240 V at 50/60 Hz. Do not apply AC mains power at any other voltage or 
frequency to the fixture.
