Mounting the CIA114F5

The CIA114F5 is designed to fit into a Steel City 665 floor box (figure 2-9). The installation must conform to national and local electrical codes and to the interface’s size requirements.

CThe interface must be installed into an Underwriters Laboratories (UL) approved Steel City electrical floor box. The floor box is not included with the interface; the installer is responsible for obtaining and installing the box.
