disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box
and associated wall switch location. If you cannot lock the circuit breakers
in the off position, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a
tag, to the service panel.

in the middle of the ceiling gasket and ceiling plate. Note: The
ceiling gasket should be flush against the ceiling.
