Quick guide from the manual
This document provides assembly and installation instructions for the Golden Lighting 0511-1W wall sconce. All installation work must be performed by an accredited professional. Before starting, ensure the power supply is shut off at the circuit breaker or fuse box. Use only the specified bulbs and do not exceed the maximum wattage.
Preparing for installation
- Carefully remove the fixture and all parts from the packaging.
- Shut off power at the circuit breaker and remove the old fixture and mounting strap from the wall.
- Ensure the mounting strap (A) is prepared with the correct mounting screws (B & C).
- Place the mounting strap (A) against the junction box and align the backplate (D) to ensure the fixture will hang straight.
- Pull house wires through the center of the mounting strap and secure the strap to the junction box using screws (C).
Connecting the wires
Have an assistant support the fixture's weight during wiring. Connect the fixture wires to the house power supply wires as follows:
- Hot: Connect the fixture's hot wire (smooth, black, or transparent with black inner thread) to the house hot wire.
- Neutral: Connect the fixture's neutral wire (ribbed, white, or transparent with white inner thread) to the house neutral wire.
- Ground: Connect the fixture's ground wire (copper, bare metal, green, or transparent with green inner thread) to the house ground wire. If no house ground wire exists, wrap the fixture's ground wire around the ground screw (E) on the mounting bracket.
Twist wire ends together and secure with a wire connector, ensuring all twists are in the same direction. Tuck the connected wires into the junction box.
Finishing the installation
- Place the backplate (D) over the mounting strap (A) so that screws (B) protrude through the holes.
- Secure the backplate with decorative nuts (F) until it is snug against the wall.
- Hold the shades (H) up to the sockets (G) and secure them using the socket cover (I) and socket ring (J).
- Adjust the glass to be horizontal and vertical.
- Install the appropriate light bulbs (not provided) into the sockets (G), ensuring you do not exceed the maximum recommended wattage.
- Turn on the power and test the fixture.
