Electrical Requirements
• Limited to use in dry and damp locations.
• The grounding and bonding of the LED Driver shall be done in accordance with National Electric Code (NEC) Article 600.
• Follow all National Electric Codes (NEC) and local codes.
• These products are only suitable for connection to a circuit from a Class 2 power source. These products have not been evaluated for use when connected to a power source that does not comply with Class 2 voltage and energy limited supplies.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation
is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may
not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the
user will be required to correct the interference at his own
expense.
This Class [A] RFLD complies with the Canadian standard
ICES-005. Ce DEFR de la classe [A] est conforme à la NMB-005

Connect the AC line to the brown (line)
and blue (neutral) input wires of the
power supply using 18-14 AWG (0.822.08 mm2) twist-on wire connectors.
Properly ground (green wire with
yellow stripe) power supply in
accordance with National Electric
Code (NEC) Article 600. NOTE: For CSA approval, a disconnect/toggle switch of appropriate rating needs to be placed within 29.5 ft. (9 m) of primary side of the
power supply. The minimum rating of the switch must be either 120 or 220 Volts AC. The switch must also support twice the amount of
input current.
NOTE: When installing power supply, connect to the appropriate sized building breaker or disconnect device for line and neutral
connections, in accordance with local, state or country regulations.
NOTE: The grounding and bonding of the power supply and overall sign shall be done in accordance with National Electric Code (NEC)
Article 600.
Retrofit Instructions
1. (Existing Signs Only) Prior to installation, survey the site for information regarding power and accessibility inside and outside the building. Ensure that the branch circuit supplying the existing transformer or ballast will be within the voltage ratings of the new LED power supply, and have a current rating not exceeding 20A, or that permitted by applicable local, state, or country electrical codes (whichever is less).
2. (Existing Signs Only) Remove the existing lighting equipment to be replaced, such as neon tubing or fluorescent tubes; and associated transformers and ballasts. Care should be taken not to break the existing neon or fluorescent tubes.
NOTE: Follow all federal and local regulations when disposing of neon tubing, fluorescent tubes, transformers and ballasts.
3. (Existing Signs Only) If removal of the existing lighting equipment eliminates the disconnect switch, as required by applicable local, state, or country electrical codes; a new disconnect switch must be installed.
4. (Existing Signs Only) Make sure the removal of lighting equipment does not compromise the integrity of the sign body (i.e. water intrusion). Fill in all holes 0.5 in. (13 mm) or smaller with the appropriate amount of rated caulk or sealant. For holes greater than 0.5 in. (13 mm), use an aluminum or zinc coated steel patch with rivets and sealant.
5. Using the layout guidelines within the LED module installation instructions, determine required number of LED modules required to illuminate the sign.
6. Using the applicable LED module maximum Loading chart, determine the number of Tetra Class 2 Power Supplies required to power the number of LED modules required to illuminate the sign, so as not to overload any single power supply output.
7. Follow the LED module instructions to properly mount the LED modules.
8. Connect the DC output of the power supply to the LED modules using the Power Supply Installation instructions above.
9. Connect the power unit to the supply in accordance with the applicable local, state, and country electrical codes, and the Power Supply Installation instructions above.
10. If required, the disconnect switch shall be installed by qualified personnel, in accordance with applicable local, state, and country electrical codes.
