Part # 45-0072-WH CONTINUED
Installation Instructions:
Figure 1:
Top view - shows needed space between the
drywall and the studs. Receptacle side of the
Mid-Size Plate should be 3” from the stud but no
more than 5” (review picture carefully).
Figure 2:
Cut out the supplied template on page 3 of this instruction sheet. Place the template on
the wall in the desired install location. Using your pen or pencial, trace the template on the
wall. Using a drywall saw or utility knife, cut a hole in the drywall the size of the template.
See Figure 1 before tracing your opening. Remember, this wall plate is designed to be
installed between the studs. It cannot be installed on top of a stud.
Figure 3:
Run the source of power to the included steel electrical box. Be sure to follow all local
electrical codes.
Figure 4:
Connect the suplied 20 Amp Duplex Receptacle to a piece of 12/2 w/ ground UL
approved electrical building wire that you have pulled from a power source. Strip off
approximately 3 inches of the outer jacket of the wire. Be careful not to cut the jacket of
the inner wires. Connect the hot line (black) wire to the brass colored terminal screw and
neutral (white) wire to the silver colored terminal screw. Be sure to connect the grounding
(green) or bare grounding wire to the green colored terminal screw. Once you have wired
the 20 Amp Duplex Receptacle, screw it into the Steel Electrical Box until the receptacle
is firmly secured.
Figure 5:
Use the four provided screws to secure the Steel Electrical Box and Receptacle to the
mounting studs on the backside of the Recessed Low Voltage Mid-Side Plate.
Figure 6:
Important: Before installing the Mid-Size Plate into the template opening, make sure to
pull your low voltage cables through the low voltage cable opening. If you have more than
4 cables you can remove the flexible plate that seals the low voltage cable opening.
After low voltage pass through: Start with the bottom of the Mid-Size Plate and slowly
slide it into the opening. Swing the top of the plate into position until the entire Mid-Size
Plate is flush with the wall. Now screw down the screws with wings; these wings fasten
tightly against the back of the drywall.
Figure 7:
Your new Recessed Low Voltage Mid-Size Plate with 20 Amp Duplex Receptacle is now
installed and ready for the TV mount to be installed. Install your TV mount bracket per the
TV bracket manufacturer’s instructions.
