CAUTION
Do not allow contact between the common and the fixture’s
chassisground. Grounding the common can cause a ground loop, and your
fixture may perform erratically. Test cables with an ohm meter to verify
correct polarity and to make sure the pins are not grounded or shorted to
the shield or each other.
