Step 3
Step 1 Determine box location and conduit layout. Remove knockouts and attach proper
conduit adapters (not included) to steel base.
Step 2 Select internal compartments of box which are to be used for power. Service
isolation may be acquired by plastic housing. Power compartments must be
arranged adjacent to one another to utilize the “pass-around” tunneling system (see
Figure 1).
Step 3 Slip housing over base. Insert retaining bracket inside housing and secure to base
using four #10-24 x 3/16" [4.8mm] screws provided (see Figure 2).
Step 4 Adjust box so that top of housing is 1/16" [1.6mm] below screed line using the
leveling screws provided. Secure box to subfloor using wire or nails through the
slots adjacent to the adjusting screws. Once positioned, connect conduit to fittings.
Step 5 Leave receptacle brackets in plastic bags until concrete is set and receptacles are
ready to be installed. Place brackets in box and insert mudcap.
NOTE: Make sure proper compartments are isolated before concrete
placement as barriers must be broken out rendering the barrier
useless and possibly breaking the plastic housing
