WIRING: TBC303-15/BTBC303-15
1. Remove packing material from inside housing.
2. Always be sure to turn power OFF when installing or servicing a transformer box.
3. Using a liquid tight connector (not included) in the open threaded hole in the bottom of the box, connect
conduit (by others) containing incoming power to the box.
4. Using wire connectors (not included) connect green ground wire from box to green supply wire. Connect
white supply wire to white wire from box labled, "120V COM". Connect black supply wire to black wire from
box labeled "120 VOLT".
5. Using a liquid tight connector (not included) in one of the plugged holes in the bottom of the box, connect
conduit (by others) containing fixture wires to the box.
6. Using wire connectors (not included) connect ribbed side of low voltage supply cable to white wire from box
labled, "COM". Connect smooth side of low voltage supply cable to black wire from box labled, "12V", "13V",
"14v" or "15V" as desired.
EXCAVATION
Excavate soil for housing placement and conduit runs. Contour the hole to the shape of the transformer
housing, allowing 3" min. around and under the transformer housing for the placement of granular material. It is
recommended that fixtures not be placed in low locations where water could accumulate and stand for long
periods of time.
DRAINAGE
Transformer housing should be surrounded by a 3" minimum layer of gravel or sand to insure proper drainage.
For concrete pour installations, box is to be placed on a 4" minimum bed of gravel with soil below. Use the PVC
Concrete Pour Kit accessory when installing in concrete. When backfilling, flange should be just above ground
level as sown in the illustration. Hilling up earth around the box will promote good water run-off and prevent
debris accumulation.

(Order in which to tighten screws)
CAUTION!
1. Transformer housing should not be installed in insulating materials such as bark, vermiculite, etc. for the full
depth of the housing. This could cause the housing to overheat and void the warranty. Surface use of these
materials is acceptable.
2. Regularly check the lid and keep it cleared of debris (mulch, leaves, etc.) as this could cause a fire.
3. The conduit entries must be potted. Use two part epoxy #MA1 (included) or equivalent.
4. All gasket seating surfaces must be clean and free of debris before attempting to replace the lid. If debris in
the screw holes prevents proper seating of the gasket, holes must be blown clear or cleared with a #10-24 tap.
Insert screws through lid and into housing, and tighten using an alternating torque sequence of 20-30 inch-lbs.
See diagram below.
WIRING: TBC603-15/BTBC603-15
1. Remove packing material from inside housing.
2. Always be sure to turn power OFF when installing or servicing a transformer box.
3. Using a liquid tight connector (not included) in the open threaded hole in the bottom of the box, connect
conduit (by others) containing incoming power to the box.
4. Using wire connectors (not included) connect green ground wire from box to green supply wire. Connect
white supply wire to white wire from box labled, "120V COM". Connect black supply wire to black wire from box
labeled "120V".
5. Using a liquid tight connector (not included) in one of the plugged holes in the bottom of the box, connect
conduit (by others) containing fixture wires to the box.
6. This transformer contains two seperate 300VA circuits. The wires for one circuit are marked with blue tape to
keep the two circuits separated. Using wire connectors, connect ribbed side of low voltage supply cable to
white wire from box labeled, "COM". Connect smooth side of low voltage supply cable, from the same wire to
black wire from box labeled "12V", "13V", "14V" or "15V" as desired. Repeat with wires from second circuit.
7. Locate 2 white wires with flag terminals and slide them over the open tabs at the bottom of each magnetic
breaker switch. Replace the breaker handle and tighten screws.
