5. Configurazione e installazione

Per una corretta installazione, seguire attentamente questi passaggi:

  1. Scollegare l'alimentazione: Before starting any installation, ensure the main power supply to the circuit is turned OFF at the circuit breaker. Verify with a voltagetester.
  2. Montaggio: The Amax 20537-60 transformer is designed for surface mounting. Choose a suitable, dry, and well-ventilated location. Secure the transformer using appropriate screws (not included) through its mounting tabs. Ensure there is adequate space around the unit for heat dissipation.
  3. Collegamenti elettrici:
    • Input (120V AC): Connect the 120V AC input wires from your power source to the designated input terminals on the transformer. Typically, these are labeled for Line (L) and Neutral (N). Ensure a secure connection.
    • Output (12V AC): Connect the 12V AC output wires from the transformer to your low-voltage halogen lighting fixtures. Ensure the total wattage of all connected fixtures does not exceed 60 watts.
    • Messa a terra: Follow all local electrical codes for proper grounding.
  4. Verifica connessioni: Double-check all wiring connections to ensure they are tight and correct. Loose connections can cause overheating or malfunction.
  5. Ripristina alimentazione: Una volta che tutti i collegamenti sono sicuri e verificati, ripristinare l'alimentazione all'interruttore automatico.
