Installing the SCHONBEK S9215-702O Habsburg 2 Light 12 Inch Tall Wall Sconce requires careful attention to safety and procedure. First and foremost, before you begin any installation, always turn off the power to the circuit at the breaker to prevent electrical shock. As stated in the SCHONBEK manual, for all electrical aspects, it's best to consult a licensed electrician who can ensure compliance with the National Electric Code and your local electrical regulations. Assuming you're comfortable with electrical work or have a professional assisting, here’s a general guide:
- Gather Your Tools and Materials: You'll need a screwdriver, wire strippers, wire connectors, and a ladder. Make sure all necessary mounting hardware is included with your SCHONBEK fixture.
- Mount the Wall Plate: Attach the wall plate securely to the wall, using the screws provided. Use a level to ensure it's straight.
- Connect the Wiring: Carefully connect the wires from the wall to the fixture, referring to the wiring diagram in the SCHONBEK manual. Match the wires correctly (e.g., black to black, white to white, and ground to ground). Use wire connectors to create secure connections.
- Secure the Fixture: Once the wiring is complete, attach the fixture to the wall plate using the provided screws. Make certain it's stable and aligned properly.
- Test the Sconce: Restore power at the breaker and test the sconce. If it doesn't work, double-check all wiring connections. If you're unsure, seek professional help.
- Final Inspection: After a successful test, perform a final inspection to confirm everything is secure and there are no loose connections. Review the SCHONBEK S9215-702O Habsburg's instruction manual for specific instructions regarding your model.
