The Hinkley 16805 Hardy Island LED Deck Sconce is a low-voltage lighting fixture designed for outdoor use. It requires a 9-15V AC power supply. Installation involves using the provided template to drill pilot holes, mounting the fixture with #6 screws, and connecting the wires to a low-voltage transformer.
Luminaire Mounting

- Use the provided mounting template to mark and drill holes on the mounting surface.
- Drill pilot holes using a 3/32" diameter drill bit at the indicated points.
- Install #6 Phillips head wood screws, leaving a 3/16" gap between the screw head and the mounting surface.
- If wiring passes through the mounting surface, drill the hole as indicated on the template.
Luminaire Wiring
The fixture operates on 9-15 Volts AC. Connect both fixture wires to the supply wires from the transformer using wire nuts.

Low Voltage Cable Requirements
- Route the main low voltage cable in close proximity to the luminaire or building structure.
- The cable should not be buried, except for a maximum of 6 inches (15.2 cm) to connect to the main cable.
- Ensure the cable is cut and connected to a connector within 6 inches (15.2 cm) of a building structure, luminaire, or fitting.
