SHORTENING LENGTH OF PENDANT CORD

Carefully measure the desired length of cord and cut off the excess.

It is important to leave an additional 6” that will be inside the canopy for connection to your transformer. Using the 10 AWG setting, strip off 1-1/2” of outer teflon jacket with a pair of wire strippers.

Gently push the silver metal braiding downward on the cord, causing the braiding to create a bubble shape as shown.

Using a pointed object, such as a pencil, expand an opening in the silver braiding until the inner conductor is clearly exposed.

Once the inner conductor is exposed, it can now be separated from the braiding. Slide the pointed object between the inner conductor and the braiding, as shown. Gently wedge the inner conductor apart from the braiding. Now twist the braiding tightly into a conductor.

Strip 1/2” insulation from the inner conductor. The pendant cord is now ready for installation (Refer to the Canopy Instructions).

After connection to the transformer, it is recommended that any exposed portion of the braided conductor be wrapped with electrical tape.

4. Remove the exposed braiding by pulling away from the center conductor, then cutting off excess.

Leave 1/16” of braided material or less.

5. Strip off 1/8” of insulation from the Center Conductor.

The exposed stranded wire of the Center Conductor must be tightly wound before proceeding.

6. Feed the wire until it reaches the top set screw position. Confirm by viewing the Center Conductor through the Viewing Hole.

7. The Brass Collar should align with the bottom of the

Quick Connect Jack, if not then trim the Center Conductor.
