Mounting the MLC to an electrical box or mud ring
1.
With power disconnected at the source, insert the MLC into the wall or furniture.
2.
Mount the MLC to the wall box or mud ring mounting bracket with the
provided machine screws (as shown in the following illustrations), or attach it
directly to the furniture with wood or metal screws.
If the MLC (and any accessories such as control modules or an IR Link) is not
mounted to a grounded metal wall box,
• Ground each faceplate directly to an earth ground. Or...
•
Tie each faceplate to it’s circuit board and power supply via a ground pin on
one of the connectors.
Do not tie a product’s faceplate to both a separate earth ground and the circuit
ground (via a connector pin). If you tie a product to two different ground
sources, you may introduce ground loops or other grounding-related problems
into the system.
