Legrand WMFB User Manual
Wmfb-1 & wmfb-2 series floor box, Installation instructions
1. WARNING: TEST THAT POWER IS OFF AT CIRCUIT BREAKER OR
FUSE BLOCK!
2. Determine approximate location (which joists to put it between) and
route cable(s) to joist cavity and fasten cable within 12" of proposed
opening per NEC 334.30 leaving large enough loop to later install box
after finishing floor installation.
3. Determine box location and
drill four 3/4" diameter holes
using
template
“A”
for
WMFB1 series or template
“B” for WMFB2 series.
Note: When installing tile,
marble or hardwood flooring,
you may want to wait to cut
the
opening
during
the
finished floor installation to
ensure the opening in the
floor does not end up in the
middle of a tile or hardwood
plank.
4. Cut remainder of opening
using the appropriate tem-
plate
by
connecting
the
edges of the holes.
5. Complete the finished floor
installation
up
to
the
previously
cut
opening,
ensuring the box will still fit
into opening.
6. Pull the wires through the
opening in floor and into the
auto-clamp feature. Knock-
outs are provided for low
voltage cables if desired. If
Romex-type
NM
cable
is
routed through the knockouts,
an approved wire clamp must
be used.
7. Attach box to flooring using
either the four #6 drywall
screws included or use the
assembled swing brackets.
Tighten screws firmly. When
assembling
to
carpet,
the
carpet
may
need
to
be
trimmed back to ensure the
box flange sets flush. Trim only
the carpet loops/shag and
leave the carpet backing under
the flange for security. Cut the
padding back 1-2" larger than
the opening to ensure the
device seats firmly and flush to
the floor.
8. Install device(s) per appropriate
installation instructions below.
