Outlet Box Mounting (Fig. 4)
Use a horizontally mounted outlet box if possible. If a
vertical outlet box is used, mount the wallplate or subbase on
a 193121A (beige) Cover Plate Assembly (ordered sepa-
rately). Follow the instructions provided with the cover
plate assembly.
Align the wallplate or subbase mounting holes on the
outlet box and loosely fasten with two screws.
Carefully level the wallplate or subbase (Fig. 3), and
firmly tighten the screws.
WIRE WALLPLATE OR SUBBASE
Follow the instructions provided by the heating, cooling,
or heating/cooling equipment manufacturer. If not available,

Disconnect the power supply before making wiring con-
nections to prevent electrical shock or equipment damage.
