1. Unpack the fixtures. The louver frames and lamps may be packed with the fixtures or separately.
To prevent damage, install the fixtures before installing lamps and louver frames.
2. Prepare the line-voltage wiring to the fixtures. Depending on building conditions, it may be necessary
to install the power and control wiring before the fixture is placed in the ceiling. Ensure that the supply
voltage matches that required by the ballasts. To install the power feed, remove the knockouts as needed
and install the correct type of power cabling and strain relief (not provided). Connect the wires from the
feed using wire nuts, observing the wire color-coding, and re-install the knockout plate.
Brightline
fixtures intended for the North American market use Black/White/Green wires respectively for
Line/Neutral/Earth Ground; fixtures shipped to other locations use Brown/Blue/Green-Yellow for
Line/Neutral/Earth Ground. You may want to install sufficient slack in the power cable so that, if
necessary, the fixture can be moved to an adjacent ceiling opening.
3. These fixtures are not Insulated Ceiling (IC) rated. Maintain the proper distance from insulation
(3 in [76 mm] in the US and Canada).
4. If the fixture requires low-voltage control, the proper wiring must be run to each fixture. Connect the
control wires inside the fixture, observing the proper color-coding. Install the control wiring
above the ceiling. (See the
Control Wiring
section below.)
5. Fixtures can be mounted in two ways: either flush-mount in a “hard” ceiling, such as plaster or drywall;
or mounted in a T-Grid acoustical-tile ceiling.

•
Hard Ceilings:
Verify that the locations in which you
intend to mount the fixtures are free of above-ceiling
obstructions such as ceiling joists, air conditioning
ducts, etc. For ease of installation, a minimum of
8 in [203 mm] of clear height above the ceiling is
recommended. In accordance with drawings provided
by
Brightline
or the local architect or engineer, prepare
the ceiling by cutting openings that are 24.56- x 24.56-in
[624- x 624-mm] in size. Depending on ceiling construction,
it may be necessary to install a frame in the opening to
accommodate the weight of the fixture. Install the power and
control wiring as described above. With the mounting clips
in their recessed position (folded back next to the fixture,
see figure 1), lift the fixture into its opening.
Using a screwdriver, turn the screws on the bottom of the mounting clips until the clips turn approximately
90° and rest on the frame or ceiling structure. (Figure 2) Adjust the clips so the bottom of the fixture is
flush with the exposed side of the ceiling. (Figure 3)
