How to Install Wiremold RFB6E Series Six-Compartment Box
To install the Wiremold RFB6E, follow these general guidelines to ensure a safe, compliant, and durable setup. Always refer to local electrical codes and manufacturer instructions for your specific project requirements.
1. Plan the installation and shut off power: Confirm the desired location, ensure the floor cutout aligns with the space, and verify that power sources and data lines are routed away from any potential hazards. Obtain any necessary permits before commencing work.
2. Prepare the floor opening: Use the provided template or manufacturer guidelines to mark the cutout. Remove flooring material and create a clean, level opening that accommodates the six-gang box while allowing for proper air circulation and cable strain relief.
3. Mount the enclosure: Position the RFB6E within the floor opening, ensuring alignment with surrounding finishes. Secure the box according to installation instructions, using appropriate fasteners and supports to prevent movement or vibration during use.
4. Route and organize cables: Bring in power feeds, data cables, and A/V lines through designated knockouts or raceways. Maintain separation between high-voltage and low-voltage paths to minimize interference. Label each conductor or outlet to simplify future changes or maintenance.
5. Install outlets and modules: Attach receptacles and RFBE modular components as specified for your configuration. Verify that all connections are secure and compliant with electrical standards. Ensure modules sit flush and that lids or covers close properly without binding.
6. Test and finalize: Restore power and test each outlet, data port, and A/V connection for continuity and performance. Check grounding and bonding as required by code, then reinstall floor finishes and perform a final inspection to confirm flush mounting and safe operation.
7. Documentation and maintenance: Create a simple map of the installed outlets for building maintenance and future changes. Provide ongoing inspection intervals to monitor wear, security of fasteners, and the integrity of cable management features to preserve performance over time.
