This simplifies installation procedures while ensuring robust protection against electrical hazards.
• Customizable Light Output: The E27 lamp holder provides immense freedom in bulb selection. Users can choose energy-efficient LED bulbs for significant cost savings and extended lifespan, or opt for decorative filament bulbs to further enhance the lamp's vintage appeal and the warm glow from the copper interior, while still achieving the desired brightness and color temperature.

Tips

To ensure the longevity, optimal performance, and safety of your Truro Pendant Black & Copper, please consider the following professional advice:

• Professional Installation is Highly Recommended: While the Truro Pendant is designed for ease of installation, it is always best to have a qualified and licensed electrician handle the wiring and mounting. This ensures proper electrical connections, secure fixture placement, and full compliance with all local electrical codes and safety regulations.
• Bulb Selection for Optimal Effect:
  • E27 Compatibility: Always use E27 base bulbs.
  • Maximum Wattage: Strictly adhere to the maximum rated wattage of 60W. Using higher wattage bulbs can lead to overheating, damage the fixture, and pose a fire hazard.
  • LED Preference: For superior energy efficiency, extended lifespan, and reduced heat output, always opt for E27 LED bulbs. These are available in various brightness levels and color temperatures.
  • Filament Bulbs for Aesthetics: To truly enhance the warm glow from the copper interior and complement the industrial design, consider LED filament bulbs (e.g., clear or amber-tinted) as they create a beautiful visual effect and a cozy ambiance.
  • Non-Dimmable Note: Since the Truro Pendant is explicitly non-dimmable, do not attempt to use it with a dimmer switch. This will not allow dimming and could potentially damage the bulb or the fixture.
• Adjusting Hanging Height Safely:
  • Before making any adjustments to the cord length, ensure the power is completely disconnected at the main circuit breaker.
  • Carefully determine the desired hanging height for your space. The adjustable cord offers significant flexibility to achieve the ideal look and light distribution.
  • Once the desired length is achieved, ensure the cord is securely fastened within the ceiling rose mechanism to prevent any slippage over time.
• Cleaning and Maintenance:
  • Always turn off the power to the fixture at the circuit breaker before cleaning.
  • For the steel fitting (Black exterior, Copper interior), use a soft, dry, or very slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or solvents, as these can scratch or dull the finish, particularly the delicate copper interior.
  • Regular, light dusting will help maintain its pristine appearance and ensure optimal light output.
• Strategic Placement and Grouping:
  • Centering: For dining tables or kitchen islands, ensure the fixture is centered over the surface for balanced illumination and visual impact.
  • Multi-Pendant Arrangements: In larger spaces or over long surfaces, consider installing multiple Truro Pendants in a linear fashion or a cluster at varying heights to create a dynamic and artistic lighting installation. The two available sizes (210mm and 370mm) offer creative grouping possibilities.
  • Clearance: Ensure adequate clearance below the lowest hanging point, especially over dining tables, to prevent obstruction of views or accidental contact.
• Periodic Safety Checks: Regularly inspect the fixture for any signs of wear, such as frayed cords, loose connections, or damage to the shade. If any issues are detected, immediately switch off the power and consult a qualified electrician.

By diligently following these guidelines, your Truro Pendant Black & Copper will not only provide beautiful, warm illumination but also serve as a durable, safe, and elegant centerpiece in your space for many years to come.
