Installation Instructions
These products should be installed by a competent person (eg. a qualified
electrician) in accordance with these instructions and in compliance with the
appropriate clauses of the current edition of the IET or IEC wiring and
building regulations. Sockets should be protected by a suitable RCD device.
The IP66 range is designed to be mounted on a vertical flat surface, with
socket outlets not more than 1.5 meters above the ground.
The rear box shall be mounted on the wall using four number 8 wood screws.
If conduit is to be used then please follow the instructions below:
The draining feature can be drilled out using a 5mm drill if the top or side
entry conduit is used. Opening this drain hole will reduce the IP rating of
the product.
If the bottom entry conduit is used, there must be adequate drainage from the
lowest point of the conduit.
The relevant cable entry knockout should be carefully removed.
The rear box is equipped with 20mm removable blanks, if a 25mm entry is
required the blank should be left in place and drilled out using a suitable
25mm hole saw. The center position of the blank has been pre-marked for this
purpose.
A waterproof cable or conduit entry must then be fitted in its place.
If two cable entry positions are used with metal conduits, then earth
continuity between the conduits must be maintained.
Ensure that the gasket is correctly fitted, and tighten the four screws to fix
the front cover in place. Do not over-tighten. The use of an electric
screwdriver is not recommended.
