Installation Manual for Golden Lighting 1830-LP Linear Pendant

Important Information

Installation of this fixture should be performed by an accredited professional. Always shut off the power supply at the fuse or circuit breaker before beginning any work. Use only the specified bulbs and do not exceed the maximum wattage rating.

Preparation for Installation

Carefully remove the fixture from the carton and locate the parts bag. Ensure the power is off and remove any old fixtures and mounting hardware. Attach the mounting strap (B) to the junction box using the provided mounting screws (D), ensuring the mounting screws (A) are vertical and aligned with the canopy (F) holes.

Assembling the Fixture

Determine the desired hanging height by measuring the number of rods (L) needed. The fixture includes three 12-inch rods and one 6-inch rod per side. Feed the fixture wires from the posts (M) through the caps (T) and rods (L). Thread the rods together and pull the wires until taut. Secure the top rods to the swivel posts (K) on the canopy (F) by tightening the hex nuts (G) over the washers (H and I). Trim the wires to the desired length, leaving 8 to 10 inches for connection.

Connecting the Wires

Have an assistant support the fixture's weight during wiring. Connect the fixture wires to the house power supply wires using wire connectors:

• Hot to Hot: Connect the transparent wire with black inner thread, black wire, or smooth wire to the house hot wire.
• Neutral to Neutral: Connect the transparent wire with white inner thread, white wire, or ribbed wire to the house neutral wire.
• Ground to Ground: Connect the transparent wire with green inner thread, green wire, or copper wire to the house ground wire. If no house ground wire exists, wrap the fixture ground wire around the ground screw (E) on the mounting bracket.

Ensure all wire twists are in the same direction and tuck the wires into the junction box.

Finishing the Installation

Push the canopy (F) up to the ceiling and secure it with the decorative nuts (J) onto the mounting screws (A). Slide the shades (P) over the sockets (N) and secure them using the socket rings (O). Install the light bulbs (not provided) according to the fixture's specifications.

Lighting Placement Guidelines

For optimal lighting, follow these placement recommendations:

• Kitchen Island: Center the linear pendant over the island. Use one pendant for every 24 inches of island length. Fixtures should hang at least 30 inches above the countertop.
• Dining Room Table: Fixtures should hang at least 30 inches above the table. Use a fixture that is 12 inches narrower than the width of the table.
• Open Areas: The bottom of the fixture should hang at least 7.5 feet from the floor, allowing clearance for opening doors.
