Pinnacle Stik™ Retrofit GuideWARNING• Installation must only be performed by a licensed electrician.• To prevent death, injury or damage to property this product must be installed in

accordance with the National Electric Code in the USA or Canadian Electrical Code (CSA22.1) in Canada.

• Install according to Kit Model: PL-RT1-001. Go to P-LED.com for details.• This guide covers the kit model PL-RT1-001 and is to only include the UL recognized LED

products and power supplies found in this manual and UL file E341517.• WARNING - Risk of fire or electric shock. LED Retrofit Kit installation requires knowledge

of sign electrical systems. If not qualified, do not attempt installation. Contact a qualified electrician.

• WARNING - Risk of fire or electric shock. Install this kit only in host signs that have been identified in the installation instructions and where the input rating of the retrofit kit does not exceed the input rating of the sign.

• WARNING - Risk of fire or electric shock. Installation of this LED retrofit kit may involve drilling or punching of holes into the structure of the sign. Check for enclosed wiring and components to avoid damage to wiring and electrical parts.

• Installer should examine all parts that are not intended to be replaced by the retrofit kit for damage and replace any damaged parts prior to installation of the retrofit kit.

• Installers should not disconnect existing wires from lampholder terminals to make new connections at lampholder terminals. Instead installers should cut existing lampholder leads away from the lampholder and make new electrical connections to lampholder lead wires by employing applicable connectors.

• WARNING - To prevent wiring damage or abrasion, do not expose wiring to edges of sheet metal or other sharp objects.

• “Do not make or alter any open holes in an enclosure of wiring or electrical components during kit installation.”

• “Repair and seal any unused openings in the electrical enclosure. Openings greater than 12.7-mm (1/2-in) diameter require a metal patch secured by screws or rivets and caulked with non-hardening caulk. Smaller openings may be sealed with non-hardening caulk.”

• WARNING: To avoid potential fire or shock hazard, do not use this retrofit kit with existing shunted bi-pin lampholders in the host sign. Note: Shunted lampholders are found only in fluorescent signs with Instant-Start ballasts. Instant-start ballasts can be identified by the words “Instant Start” or “I.S.” marked on the ballast. This designation may be in the form of a statement pertaining to the ballast itself, or may be combined with the marking for the lamps with which the ballast is intended to be used, for example F40T12/IS. For more information, contact the LED retrofit kit manufacturer.

• “This sign has been modified to operate LED lamps. Do not attempt to install or operate lamps in this sign.” shall be marked on the retrofitted sign where readily visible by the user during normal maintenance including relamping. “Lamps in this sign shall be replaced by the original illumination type such as ‘fluorescent,’ ‘HID,’ etc.” This marking shall be provided on a separate permanent label that is intended to remain in the applied position for the lifetime of the sign under conditions of normal use.

This product is covered by issued U.S. Patent No. 9,851,054 and 10,024,501.

GENERAL PURPOSE RETROFIT SIGN CONVERSION

FOR USE ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH KIT INSTRUCTIONS

KIT IS COMPLETE ONLY WHEN ALL PARTS REQUIRED BY THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE PRESENT

PINNACLE STIK™ RETROFIT ASSEMBLYNote: Do not insert Stik into existing sockets until ballast has been disconnected from mains and removed.

Troubleshooting:• Check power to sign.• Check power connection to the driver.• Check polarity on the Direct Current side (Red+ / Black-).• Check wire nut connections to each Stik.

1. 2.

3. 4.Turn off power from main lines.

Cut power and secondary lines to the existing ballast and remove.

Remove old fluorescent lamps from existing lamp sockets.

Insert Stik into lamp socket. See depth chart to determine LED direction. Depth Chart can be found at P-LED.com

5. 6.

7. 8.

Connect UL listed 12 AWG hook up wire to the power supply Red (+) to Red (+), and Black (-) to Black (-) then Run the 12 Gauge hook up wire along the bottom of the cabinet.

Unscrew the gray portion of the Posi-Tap® from the main body and place the 12 AWG wire in the cradle, directly under the Stik.

With the wire in place, reattach the rest of the Posi-Tap® by screwing the main body down onto the gray portion holding the wire. This will cause the pin in the main body to penetrate the wire and make a secure electrical connection. Continue down the 12 AWG wire until the max number of sticks have been connected to the power supply.

Cut the excess 12 AWG wire, leaving enough to cap the end to prevent water infiltration.

This instruction sheet is meant to be used in accordance with all NEC and local electrical codes. This document does not supersede any local, state, or national regulations.For questions, please contact Principal LED at 325.227.4577 or visit us on the web at P-LED.com

Note: Mounting brackets are available for new construction. Use as a mounting base on each side of the cabinet.

Tighten wing nut at each end to adjust height and stabilize the Pinnacle Stik™.

LEDs may be pointed to sign face or return depending on depth to face.

1. Mount base to each side of the return. 2. Insert Stik onto threaded base and adjust using wing nut to desired position and tighten.
