Chandelier Installation Instructions These instructions are provide for your safety. It is very important that they are read carefully and completely before beginning installation of this chandelier. We strongly suggest that all direct wired fixtures be installed by a professional electrician. BEFORE ASSEMBLY Your chandelier should have the following hardware included in the installation kit: 1. Canopy plate 2. Mounting strip with green ground screw 3. Threaded pipe nipple 4. Nipple assembly with locknut 5. Chain, electrical supply and ground wire TO ASSEMBLE 1. Shut off the main electrical supply from the fuse box/circuit breaker. 2. Remove existing fixture – loosen the locknut while holding the canopy plate with one hand. Lower the canopy plate. This exposes the outlet box that holds the wiring. 3. Unscrew the plastic wire nuts and disconnect the black and white house wires from the old fixture. Disconnect the ground wire (save the wire nuts). Remove the nipple and mounting strip that crosses the outlet box and replace with new ones from installation kit. 4. Determine the distance to suspend your chandelier from the ceiling and if necessary, remove the extra links from the chain and reconnect the chain to the nipple (hook) assembly. The electric supply wire that is woven through the chain should be cut off 12 inches longer than the chain. Cut the braided copper ground wire the same length. Split the supply wire down the center by a length of 3 inches and strip ¾ inch of insulation off the end of each wire. If you look very closely, you will notice that the plastic insulation of one of the two split wires has a rib on the outside edge. This ribbed wire is the “neutral” wire and the other is the “hot” wire; you will need to remember the difference later on when you connect these to the house wires in the electrical outlet box. 5. Insert the two stripped wires and the braided copper ground wire through the nipple assembly, locknut, mounting plate and mounting strip. Using the wire nuts that you saved, attach the ribbed wire to the white “neutral” house wire and the un-ribbed wire to the black “hot” house wire. Secure the wire nuts with black electrical tape. Connect the braided copper ground wire to the green ground screw marked “GRD” on the mounting strip. It is imperative that the outlet box in your home be properly grounded. 6. Please note: Do not reverse the hot and neutral connections. Alw ays make sure that no wire strands are outside of the wire nut connectors. 7. Gently push the wiring back into the outlet box. Screw the nipple assembly, locknut and canopy plate into the mounting strip and turn until the canopy is snug against the ceiling. Please do not support fixture from the electrical cord. 8. Restore power to the electrical outlet box. Care for your chandelier: Dust with a soft dry cloth. To protect the finish, do not use cleaners or abrasives. www.curreyandcompany.com
