Brick Light Installation Instruction
There are two models of brick lights. One supplied with an E27 Lampholder, suitable for a candle lamp, Max 40W and another version supplied with a gear tray which will house an energy saving PL9W lamp. When the fitting is intended for continuous use, we recommend the PL version which is much cheaper to run (both in terms of energy consumed and in terms of lamp cost) and more environmentally friendly.
Installation Directions
This is common to both models.
Firstly, please check whether the light fixture has been damaged during transport.
When starting installation, disconnect the power first from the mains supply and then carry out the following steps:
1) Bring a cable from the mains to the position where u wish to install the fitting. Make sure the cable you use is suitable for the application.
2) Remove the front cover, the glass and in the case of the PL version, the gear tray from the fitting.
3) Using the fitting as a template, mark, drill and plug the mounting holes in the cavity. With a sharp blade cut a cross in the rubber grommet sufficient to allow insertion of the mains cable.
4) Insert the cables through the rubber grommet and mount the fitting in the cavity screwing it into position.
5) Smother the heads of the screws and the point of entry of the cable with silicon so as to ensure water tightness. If you do not do this, water will damage the fitting.
6) Make the electrical connection (see below).
7) Ensure that the gasket is well laid out and screw glass and frame into position.
E27 Version
Connect the brown (live) and blue (neutral) cable directly to the lampholder and the yellow/green (earth) cable to the earth screw. Ensure that the live cable (brown) is connected to the centre pin of the lampholder. Check that the circuit is working and proceed as indicated above.
PL9W Version
Replace gear tray into position and screw it in firmly. Connect mains cable to the terminal block ensuring that the the brown (live) is attached to the terminal block marked ‘L’, that the blue (neutral) cable is attached to the terminal block marked ‘N’, and that the yellow/green (earth) cable is attached to the terminal block which has the ‘E’ or earth symbol. Check that the circuit is working and proceed as indicated above.
