Wiring outlet box and box connectors must be of type
required by the local code. The minimum wire would be a
3-conductor (2-wire with ground) of following size:
Installed Wire Length
Up to 50 ft.
50-100 ft.
IMPORTANT: Your ceiling fan will not function
properly, and may be damaged, if used with any wall
dimmer switch or control other than an Emerson
Electric Fan Wall Control.
Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical
supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked "Acceptable for
Fan Support of 22.7 kg. (50 lbs.) or less", and use screws
supplied with outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly
used for support of light fixtures are not acceptable for
fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a
qualified electrician if in doubt.
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.
