5. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

REMEMBER 

-Turn off the power!

Use the wire nuts supplied with your fan 
when making connections.  Secure the 
connectors with electrical tape and make 
sure there are no loose connections or wire 
strands.

1.

Spread the wires apart so that the black

wire from the fan is on one side of the 
mounting bracket and the white wire and 
green ground wire are on the other side.

2.

(Fig. 8) Connect the BLACK building

supply wire to the BLACK fan wire. 
Connect the WHITE building neutral wire 
to the WHITE fan neutral wire. Connect 
the COPPER building ground wire to the 
GREEN fan ground wire.

3.

Inside the ceiling junction box be sure

to spread the wires apart so that the black 
connection is on one side of the outlet box 
and the white/white and green/copper 
connections are on the other side.

4.

Connect the wiring from the wall

switch receptacle to wall transmitter unit.

Remove the existing wall plate and 

switch from the wall junction box.

Connect one BLACK wire from the 

wall to one BLACK wire (labeled "TO 
FAN") from the wall transmitter.

Connect the other BLACK wire 

(labeled "TO POWER SUPPLY") 
from the transmitter to the remaining 
BLACK wire from the wall (A/C 
supply source).

If your junction box has a ground 

wire (green or bare copper), connect 
the transmitter's ground wire to it. 
Otherwise, connect the transmitter 
ground wire directly to one of the 
screws from the outlet box.

Carefully tuck the connected wires 

inside the junction box.  Secure the 
transmitter with the two screws 
provided.  Attach the face plate over 
the transmitter with the two screws 
provided.

5.

Inside the ceiling junction box be sure

to spread the wires apart so that the black 
connection is on one side of the outlet box 
and the white/white and green/copper 
connections are on the other side.

Use 

ONLY

 wall controls approved by 

Quorum. Use of unapproved wall 
controls will cause unacceptable 
humming noise, and avoids the fan 
warranty.

Hook up in "series only" do 

not

 connect 

the hot and neutral wires of electric 
circuit to the transmitter wall switch - 
damage to the switch and possible fire 
could occur.

NOTE: 

It may be necessary to bind 

the house wires to the corresponding 
receiver wires with electrical tape 
before capping them with wire nuts.  
This will prevent them from slipping 
apart during the rest of the installation.
