To install the Legrand 1597NTLTRNICC4 Radiant Wall Night Light Outlet, follow these steps:
1. Turn off the power: Before starting any electrical work, turn off the power to the circuit you will be working on. Locate the breaker or fuse that controls the circuit and switch it off or remove the fuse.
2. Identify the cables/wires: Take note of the cables/wires in the electrical box. If there is only one cable entering the box, it is the LINE cable. If there are two cables, it is likely that the outlet is in position A or B.
3. Detach wires (for two cables): If you have two cables, detach one cable's white and hot wires from the receptacle and cap each one separately with a wire connector. Make sure they are from the same cable.
4. Reinstall the receptacle: Place the receptacle back into the electrical box and attach the faceplate. Turn the power back on at the service panel.
5. Determine power flow: Check if power is flowing to the receptacle. If power is present, the capped wires are the LOAD wires. If not, the capped wires are the LINE wires.
6. Turn off the power: Turn off the power at the service panel again, label the LINE and LOAD wires, and remove the receptacle.
7. Connect the wires (choose A or B):
A. One cable (2 or 3 wires) entering the box:
- Connect the LINE cable wires to the LINE terminals:
- The white wire connects to the White terminal (Silver).
- The black wire connects to the Hot terminal (Brass).
- Connect the grounding wire (if present):
- If there is no grounding terminal in the box, connect the LINE cable's bare copper (or green) wire directly to the grounding terminal on the GFCI receptacle.
- If there is a grounding terminal in the box, connect a 6-inch bare copper (or green) wire to the grounding terminal on the GFCI and another wire to the grounding terminal on the box. Connect the ends of these wires to the LINE cable's bare copper (or green) wire using a wire connector.
B. Two cables (4 or 6 wires) entering the box:
- Connect the LINE cable wires to the LINE terminals:
- The white wire connects to the White terminal (Silver).
- The black wire connects to the Hot terminal (Brass).
- Connect the LOAD cable wires to the LOAD terminals:
- Remove the yellow sticker to reveal the LOAD terminals.
- The white wire connects to the White terminal (Silver).
- The black wire connects to the Hot terminal (Brass).
- Connect the grounding wires (if present):
- Connect a 6-inch bare copper (or green) wire to the grounding terminal on the GFCI.
- If the box has a grounding terminal, also connect a similar wire to the grounding terminal on the box.
- Connect the ends of these wires to the LINE and LOAD cable's bare copper (or green) wire using a wire connector.
8. Complete the installation: Fold the wires into the box, keeping the grounding wire away from the White and Hot terminals. xxxx the receptacle to the box and attach the faceplate.
9. Test your work: Turn the power back on at the service panel. Press the RESET button on the GFCI fully. The RESET button should stay in. Plug a lamp or radio into the GFCI to verify that the power is on. Press the TEST button to trip the device. The power should turn off, and the GFCI's red Indicator Light (if present) should come on. Press the RESET button to restore power. Repeat this test every month to ensure proper operation.
