Wiring the receiver to the 
household wiring

IMPORTANT:

 Use the wire connecting nuts (BB) supplied 

with your fan. Secure the connectors with electrical tape and 

ensure there are no loose strands or connections.

WARNING:

 Each wire nut supplied with this fan is designed 

to accept up to one 12-gauge house wire and two wires 

from the fan. If you have larger than 12-gauge house wiring 

or more than one house wire to connect to the fan wiring, 

consult an electrician for the proper size wire nuts to use.

 

Spread the wires apart so that the green and white wires 

are on one side of the outlet box and the black wire is on the 

other side. 

 

Connect the green fan wires to the household ground wire 

(this may be a green or bare wire) using a wire connecting 

nut (BB).

 

Connect the receiver (L) black or red wire to the household 

black (hot) wire using a wire connecting nut (BB).

 

Connect the receiver (L) white wire to the household white 

wire (neutral) using a wire connecting nut (BB).

 

Secure each wire connecting nut using electrical tape. 

WARNING:

 To avoid possible electrical shock, turn the 

electricity off at the main fuse box before wiring. If you 

feel you do not have enough electrical wiring knowledge or 

experience, contact a licensed electrician.

If using the 8 in. ball downrod assembly (B) provided, wire 

the receiver to the fan wires by connecting the molded
