INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS DIAGRAM
DIAGRAM121
NOTE: All the branch circuit wiring has to be ready as well as an unswitched source of power before the fixture is installed.
Confirm the same branch circuit would be used for both the emergency ballast and the AC ballast.
CAUTION: Battery connector has to be opened for preventing high voltage on output leads (red and yellow).
Wait until the installation process has been completed and AC is supplying power to the emergency
ballast, and then join the battery connector.

Emergency Ballast
1. AC power has to be off before installation. Battery Pack Channel Cover
2. Choose the right wiring diagram to connect the ballast to the AC ballast and lamp.

3. Please ensure the electricity connections conform to the National Electrical Code and local regulations.
4. Follow diagrams 1 and 2 to install the battery pack on the top of the fixture or in the
ballast channel. DIAGRAM 2
Emergency Ballast
5. To install the test switch, it would go through the side of a strip fixture or the ballast channel cover of a troffer.
Follow diagrams 1 and 2 to drill a 1/2” hole and install the test switch. In order to remove AC power from both
the emergency ballast and the AC ballast, the test switch has to be connected properly (see diagram 4).
6. Match violet and brown leads to connect the charging indicator light to the battery pack (see diagram 5).
Charging Indicator Light
The charging indicator will be on after the fixture is installed properly.

7. Please search for a readily visible location to apply the CAUTION label which reads, “This unit has more
than one power supply connection point. To reduce the risk of electric shock, disonnect
both the branch circuit-breakers or fuses, and emergency power supply before servicing.”
8. Do not join the inverter connector until the fixture is completely installed and supply
AC power to the emergency ballast.
9. The battery needs to be charged for one hour in order to have short-term testing on the
emergency function. Before having a long-term emergency function testing, the battery in the emergency ballast
has to be charged for 24 hours. DIAGRAM 3

Operation
• The charging indicator light would be on to indicate the battery is being charged when AC power is applied.
• This emergency ballast would function and operate one or two lamps at least 90 minutes when the AC power is failed.

Maintenance
Note: Services should only performed by qualified personnel. The emergency ballast should be checked periodically to
confirm proper functioning and the following schedule is recommended:
1. To inspect the charging indicator every month and confirm that is illuminated.
2. Push the test switch for 30 seconds to ensure the emergency ballast is functioning. Recommended to perform this
testing every 30 days.
3. Perform a long-term test (90-minute battery discharge) at least once every year. One or two lamps should operate for
no less than 90 minutes.
