How to Install Wiremold RC3 Multi-Service Assembled Poke-Thru Device Retrofit Kit

• Before you begin, power down the circuit at the main panel and verify there is no active voltage at the existing poke-thru location. Safety first: use appropriate PPE and lockout/tagout procedures as required by your site’s protocol.
• Remove the existing RC3 poke-thru assembly from the carpeted area, being careful not to damage the surrounding flooring or the subfloor. Assess the cut-out dimensions and ensure that the opening aligns with the retrofit kit components for a secure fit.
• Prepare the installation site by cleaning the cut-out, checking for levelness, and confirming that the carpet thickness is compatible with the retrofit kit’s flange and slide holder. Install the scrub water finish flange to the base per the manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring a snug, level seating that promotes easy cleaning and resistance to moisture intrusion.
• Wiring the 20A duplex receptacle: connect the hot (live) and neutral conductors to the appropriate terminals, and configure the receptacle as standard or isolated ground based on equipment requirements. If using an isolated ground setup, route the grounding conductor directly to the isolated ground terminal as specified by code and the device manufacturer.
• Attach the slide holder assembly and secure it in place. Refit the RC3 poke-thru device into the prepared opening, ensuring the unit sits flush with the carpet surface and aligns with the surrounding finish flange. Use the provided fasteners to secure the assembly, then re-check for level alignment and clearance around the edge of the opening.
• Restore power and test the system: confirm receptacle function with a multimeter, verify that the isolated ground path (if used) is continuous, and perform a basic functionality check to ensure the slide holder and poke-thru cover operate smoothly. Finally, conduct a light scrub test in accordance with your facility’s cleaning protocol to verify scrub water compatibility and surface integrity of the finished installation.
