Installation
CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
Read and understand these instructions before installing and retain them for future reference.
FanLinc is intended for installation in accordance with the National Electric Code and local regulations in the United States or the
Canadian Electrical Code and local regulations in Canada. Use indoors only. FanLinc is not designed nor approved for use on
power lines other than 120VAC, 50Hz / 60Hz, single phase. Attempting to use FanLinc on non-approved power lines may have
hazardous consequences.
• Use only indoors or in outdoor rated box
• Be sure that you have turned off the circuit breaker or removed the fuse for the circuit you are installing FanLinc in.
Installing FanLinc with the power on will expose you to dangerous voltages.
• Connect only copper or copper-clad wire to FanLinc
• FanLinc may feel warm during operation. The amount of heat generated is within approved limits and poses no
hazards. To minimize heat buildup, ensure that the area surrounding the FanLinc air vents is as clear of clutter as
possible.
• To reduce the risk of overheating and possible damage to other equipment, use FanLinc Load output to control no
more than 300 watts of 120VAC incandescent lamps plus no more than 1 Amp of Fan load. Dimming an inductive load
(by connecting to the Light load wire), such as a fan or transformer, could cause damage to the dimmer, the load
bearing device, or both. If the manufacturer of the load device does not recommend dimming, use a non-dimming
INSTEON on/off switch. USER ASSUMES ALL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH DIMMING AN INDUCTIVE LOAD.
• You will need a flathead screwdriver, a phillips head screwdriver and a voltage meter to install FanLinc
Identifying the Electrical Wires in your Home
To install FanLinc, you will need to identify the following four wires:
• LINE - usually black, may also be called HOT or LIVE, carries 120VAC electricity into the outlet
• NEUTRAL - usually white
• LOAD – Usually Blue or Red
• GROUND - bare copper wire or metal fixture (if grounded)
If you are having difficulties identifying wires, consult an electrician to help you.
IMPORTANT!
If you are not knowledgeable about, and comfortable with, electrical circuitry, you should have a qualified electrician install this
device for you. If you have any questions, please consult an electrician.
