How to Wire Your Ceiling Fan
If you feel that you do not have enough electrical
wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan
installed by a licensed electrician.
1. Connect the green grounding lead from the hanger
ball and the green grounding lead from the hanger
bracket to the grounding conductor of supply (this
may be a bare wire or wire with green colored
insulation). Securely connect wires with wire
connectors supplied.
2. Securely connect the fan motor white wire to the
supply white (neutral) wire using wire connector
supplied (Figure 9). Securely connect the fan motor
black wire to the supply black (hot) wire using wire
connector supplied (Figure 9). After connections
have been made, turn leads upward and carefully
push leads into the outlet box, with the white and
green leads on one side of the outlet box and the
black leads on the other side of the outlet box.
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid
possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is
turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. All
wiring must be in accordance with National and
Local codes and the ceiling fan must be properly
grounded as a precaution against possible electrical
shock.
