Note: Be careful, do not allow bare wires to touch, or short, each other.
3.Hold the base against the wall with the wires coming through the opening below the terminal block, and position the base for best appearance. Mark the hole positions with a pencil or mount directly to the wall with the two screws provided.
If mounting the base to sheetrock or if using the existing mounting holes, use the plastic anchors provided. Drill a 3/16 in (4.8 mm) hole for the anchors at each screw location. Use a hammer to tap the screw anchors into the hole. Mount the base with the two screws provided.
