Installing the Acuity Brands Contractor Select ECRG Emergency Combo Unit involves several steps, and the process can vary slightly based on your chosen mounting method (back, top, or end mount). Always prioritize safety and consult the full manual for detailed instructions. Here's a general guide:
- Safety First: Begin by completely de-energizing the circuit at the junction box where the unit will be installed. This is a crucial safety measure.
- Prepare the Unit: Unpack the unit and set aside the canopy kit, hardware pack, and mounting plate.
- Wire the Lamp Heads: Route the blue and yellow lamp head wires through the appropriate mounting holes.
- Secure the Lamp Heads: Attach the lamp heads to the housing, aligning the tabs on the lamp head assembly with the slots on the housing frame. Lock them in place by twisting them clockwise.
- Mounting the Unit: Follow the specific instructions in the manual for your chosen mounting option (back, top, or end mount) to secure the unit to the junction box.
- Make Wiring Connections: Connect the battery to the charger board. Then, connect the power supply leads, ensuring RED connects to HOT and WHITE connects to NEUTRAL.
- Final Steps: Attach the back plate or canopy to the junction box cover. Secure the EXIT stencil faceplate back onto the housing.
- Testing: After installation, test the unit by pressing the TEST button to confirm the lamps illuminate as expected. Ensure all connections are secure and the unit functions correctly. If you experience any issues, consult the troubleshooting section of the manual or contact Acuity Brands directly for support.
