Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits in the work area before mounting or wiring the box. Secure the box to structural framing or surface using appropriate fasteners before pulling conductors. Do not overtighten conduit locknuts or connectors, as this can deform the knockout opening.
