How to Install the Fluorescent Luminaire Disconnect (LD2-D)

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for safely installing the LD2-D fluorescent luminaire disconnect, ensuring proper wiring and functionality.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers

Supplies needed:

Wiring connectors, Access covers

  1. Disconnect power

    Ensure that the power supply to the luminaire is completely disconnected to prevent electrical shock during installation.

  2. Remove access covers

    Take off any lamps and access covers on the luminaire to gain access to the ballast and supply wires.

  3. Connect male side of the disconnect

    Using appropriate rated wiring connectors, attach the line (black leads) and neutral (white leads) of the male side of the disconnect to the corresponding ballast leads. Ensure the male side is marked 'load'.

  4. Connect female side of the disconnect

    Using appropriate rated wiring connectors, attach the line (black leads) and neutral (white leads) of the female side of the disconnect to the incoming supply leads. Ensure the female side is marked 'line'.

  5. Mate the disconnect halves

    Before mating, ensure a positive latch by pressing the latching member on the female side down and releasing it. Then, mate the male and female halves together until you hear an audible click.

  6. Reinstall access covers and lamps

    Carefully reinstall any access covers and lamps that were removed during the installation process.

  7. Energize the circuit

    Restore power to the circuit and confirm that the luminaire is functioning properly.
