The Lumin Smart Panel receives operational power from a 240-volt circuit that must be landed on a two-pole circuit breaker. Watch the linked video to learn how to wire the Lumin Power Circuit.
The procedure described in the linked video:
- Using a screwdriver and wire stripper, connect the Lumin Smart Panel's Power Circuit to the load center.
- This circuit consists of a:
- Black wire, labeled Line A.
- Red wire, labeled Line B.
- White wire, labeled Neutral.
- This circuit must be landed on a dual-pole 15- or 20 amp breaker in the following manner.
- Begin by connecting the Lumin Smart Panel's white wire labeled Neutral to the existing neutral bar in the electrical panel.
- Now connect the black Lumin Smart Panel wire labeled Line A to the selected breaker terminal located on phase A.
- Connect the red Lumin Smart Panel wire labeled Line B to the breaker terminal on phase B.
- Lines A and Lines B can be connected to their respective breakers via:
- Double-tapping an existing breaker that is listed to accept two conductors per terminal
- (Or) A three-way spice fed by an existing breaker
- (Or) A new unpopulated breaker
- Once the Lumin Smart Panel Power Circuit is connected, you can begin to connect the blue Lumin Smart Panel control wires to the circuits Lumin will control.
- Please note that the:
- Lumin wires numbered 1 through 6 are 6 AWG wires that can control loads rated up to 60 amps.
- Wires numbered 7 through 12 are 10 AWG wires that can control loads rated up to 30 amps.
- Please note that the:
Please note that this brief video and verbiage above are not meant to replace reading the installation manual. In particular, the manual contains information about properly identifying the phase of the feeders or service conductors in the load center Lumin controls.
