GROUNDING OF FIXTURES
When installing VPLs on the exterior of high buildings it is always recommended to ground the individual fixtures to
the building to minimize the risk of failure due to lightning strikes. Make sure to check the local building code for
possible directives or laws regarding lightning prevention.
INSTALLING GROUND WIRE
The GND/Earth Cable kit (P/N: 83062050) contains one ground wire (Green and yellow wire with a ring terminal, 1
meter) and one M3 nut with a star washer, which fits on the bolt near the female VP connector on the VPL. Remem-
