Plate attaches to a mounting bracket that attaches to a wall.
WARNING: Personal Injury
 This equipment weighs 98 lbs (44.5 kg). Use safe lifting techniques when
lifting this equipment as prescribed by the Occupational Safety and Health
Association (OSHA) or other local codes.
 Use standard safety equipment such as safety glasses, ear protection, steel-
toed safety boots, safety hard hats, etc. as prescribed by the Occupational
Safety and Health Association (or other local codes) when working on this
equipment.
 Use standard safety practices when working with electrical equipment
(e.g., remove all jewelry, use insulated tools, wear cotton clothing, etc.)
 Never work alone when installing or servicing this equipment. Have
someone nearby that can come to your aid if necessary.
Mounting
The FLEXpower ONE is designed to be wall-mounted, indoors. The mounting bracket has six holes in
it with the outside holes measuring 16” center-to-center. This allows the mounting bracket to be
secured to wall studs 16” apart. If the wall studs are 24” apart, the center mounting holes should be
used to secure the bracket to the wall stud and the outside holes should be used for extra stability.
IMPORTANT:
The mounting surface should be able to hold three times the combined weight
of all the components. A sheet of ¾” plywood may be required to meet this
requirement. Check with local code to ensure regulatory compliance for
stability and cabling.
To install the Mounting Bracket:
1. Note the height of the Mounting Plate as indicated in Figure 7.
2. Place the Mounting Bracket at the desired height for the panel. The bottom of the bracket is
recommended to hang at about eye level.
3. Secure the Mounting Bracket to the wall as shown in Figure 9. Use all six mounting slots provided
on the bracket, if possible.
4. Lift the Mounting Plate above the Mounting Bracket. Slip the top of the Mounting Plate over the
angled lip of the Mounting Bracket. See Figure 10 on page 23.
5. Secure the lower back flange of the Mounting Plate to the wall (with appropriate hardware), using
the rear flange slots as shown in Figure 10 on page 23.
6. Insert all three 1” nylon hole plugs into the rear slot access holes.
