HEALTH & SAFETY GUIDELINES
CAUTION
Read all safety instructions carefully. Failure to comply
with the following safety instructions may cause
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
All fittings must be installed in accordance with the
current edition of the IEE Wiring regulations (BS7671:
Requirements for Electrical Installations), Part P of
the Building Regulations and appropriate statutory
regulations. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Before commencing any work ensure the supply is
switched off at the mains. Either by switching off
main switch at the consumer unit or by removing the
appropriate fuse.
As from April 2004 twin and earth wiring colours
changed;
EARTH Green/yellow sleeving
LIVE Brown replaces red
NEUTRAL Blue replaces black
To prevent a fire hazard always use the cable of correct
rating, size and type for application.
Ensure all terminal screws are tight and all wires are
neatly routed and not unduly stretched or pinched.
All earth connections must be made and continuity
maintained.
Where any earth conductor is a bare wire, it must be
sleeved with green/yellow sleeving.
If connecting to a switch, the switched live conductor
must be appropriately identified.
If drilling new holes, be sure to locate cables before
beginning work, to avoid electric shock and damage to
existing circuits.
GENERAL SAFETY
When working at heights, make sure you are using the
correct equipment and follow all safety instructions.
Make sure that your workplace is tidy, clear from
debris, well lit and dry.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
This LED lighting kit is designed for outdoors installation
for use in patios, in walls, on decking, step edges, in
pathways and in other areas of the garden.
This system operates at Safety Extra Low
Voltage (12V), via the plug-in driver. Never III
connect the light fittings directly to the mains
without using this driver.
Always unplug the driver from the mains when installing
or maintaining this system.
Layout:
Plan the desired layout of these fittings carefully, ensuring
the cables will reach the distances between the
driver, and each light fitting.
Avoid locating any cables in positions that would cause
a trip hazard. Position cables away from areas where
they may be at risk from being cut, trapped or damaged.
The 3 pin plug has no special protection against moisture
and must be situated indoors or in a suitable IP65 outdoor
socket box.
The driver is rated at IP65 and can be positioned outdoors.
Each connector is rated at IP65 (when rubber o-ring is in
position) and can be positioned outdoors.
The light units are rated at IP65.

Installation:
1) Do not plug-in at this stage.
2) After deciding the layout of the light fittings,
ensure the cables are long enough to connect to the
desired positions. Each head links to the next via the
IP65 connector. Additional heads can be purchased
separately. Wickes Codes 218848/ 218849. Refer to
product packaging for maximum number of heads
permissible for the supplied driver.
3) Drill the mounting holes for the light units taking care
not to damage any pipes or mains cables beneath the
mounting surface. For 30mm diameter LED lights drill
a 22mm clearance hole. For 45mm LED drill a 32mm
clearance hole. Minimum hole depth is 30mm.
4) Feed the plug and cable of each light unit through the
mounting holes and push unit into the hole to secure.
5) Connect each head to the next in series. See layout
diagram overleaf.
6) Use the supplied blanking plug to cover last sockets
which are not being used, to prevent water ingress.
7) Connect the driver cable into the end socket.
8) Plug the driver into the mains socket and switch on.
