HOOK-UP GUIDE – REMOTE APPLICATIONS
Surge Module Installation
The Surge Module features patented Monster Clean Power Stage 1 v.2.0 to reduce interference coming through
the AC power line to your components and provides surge protection against damaging voltage surges and spikes.
A) Strip about a half inch of insulation off the ends of the line (Black), neutral (White), and ground (Green) input
wires extending through the two gang outlet box.
B) Attach each wire to the corresponding input wires (distinguished by solid copper wire) extending from the Surge
Module of your In-Wall PowerCenter with wire nuts.
C) Install ring terminals (not included) to each output wire (distinguished by multi-strand wire).
Two-Outlet Receptacle Installation
Monster In-Wall PowerCenters are available with either 15 or 20-amp outlets. Be sure to use the outlet that matches
your existing branch circuit.
A) To avoid any ground loop potentials between components isolated from each other, use Romex® wire
to connect the two-outlet receptacle on the first PowerCenter to the two-outlet receptacle on the second
PowerCenter as follows:
1. Measure and cut a length of Romex cable which will run between the two PowerCenters. Strip about 6” of
the outer sheath from both ends of the of the Romex cable using a Romex stripper or a utility knife, then strip
¾” of the insulation from the black and white copper wires on both ends of the cable using wire strippers.
2. Separate the line, ground, and neutral wires from each other and insert each into the respective load
terminals on the back of the first two-outlet receptacle. Secure in place by tightening the respective screws.
3. Run the other end of the Romex wire through the wall to the location of the second PowerCenter and attach
to the two-outlet receptacle as described in Step 2 above.
