existing light fitting. Take a note of the position of the
electrical connections. Ensure there is a solid mounting
surface, preferably a wooden joist or joist bridge to
support the weight of the light fitting.
2. Diagram A. Remove the fixing bracket, by undoing the
2 side screws (1), retain these for re-use.
3. Use the fixing bracket (2) as a template to mark the
screw holes, mark the screw holes and secure to
the ceiling with the screws (3) supplied.
4. Diagram B. The length of the `drop` may be reduced
by shortening the cable / support wire. If you want to
reduce the overall length of the fitting it is essential that
this is done before the fitting is mounted to the ceiling
and / or connected to the mains supply. To do this,
shorten the length of the support wire by pushing up
the centre of the support mechanism (which acts as a
clutch) and pull the wire up through and into the ceiling
cup. When you reach the desired overall length release
the centre clutch – this will then grip the support wire.
We recommend that the minimum distance between
the ceiling cup and the top of the fitting is 100mm. The
LV cable can be loosely curved around the support
wire. NOTE: The electric cable must always be
longer than the support wire to prevent strain being
placed on the cable.
5. Support your fitting and connect the house wiring to the
terminal block (4) – see also details of terminal wiring.
NOTE: This is a Class II fitting and must not be
earthed. If you have any earth cables make sure
that they are connected to each other – to maintain
earth continuity throughout your property – and
wrap the earth terminal and connections in 2 layers
of good quality insulation tape and keep them away
from the terminal connections of the fitting. Open
the terminal block box and take out the long tailed
grommet, sliding it up the house supply cable. Cut and
strip the cable and connect it to the terminal block as
shown. Close the box. The additional single terminal
block connector is used for the “loop” wires of the “Ring
Circuit”. There may be more than one set of cables in
the “loop” connections. This additional connector must
be wrapped in 2 layers of good quality insulation tape to
prevent the conductors touching the main terminal
block connections or the metal of the fitting. If there is
a “Ring Circuit” and you do not understand the
connections you must consult an electrician.
6. Secure the fitting back onto the fixing bracket with the 2
side screws (1), removed in 2 above. Make sure that
all the internal cables and connections are inside the
Ceiling cup taking care not to trap or strain the internal
cables.
7. Diagram C. Carefully hang the decorative glass ball
assemblies onto the frame according to the diagram.
8. Turn on the power and test.
