in such a manner so that small objects should not be able to fall easily into the unit from
these openings and cause electrical / mechanical damage. Also, the mounting orienta-
tion should be such that if the internal components overheat and melt / dislodge due to
a catastrophic failure, the melted / hot dislodged portions should not be able to fall out
of the unit on to a combustible material and cause a fire hazard. The size of openings
has been limited as per the safety requirements to prevent the above possibilities when
the unit is mounted in the recommended orientations. In order to meet the regulatory
safety requirements, the mounting has to satisfy the following requirements:
- Mount on a non-combustible material.
- The mounting surface should be able to support the weight of the unit
- Mount horizontally on a horizontal surface - above a horizontal surface
(e.g. table top or a shelf).
- Mount horizontally on a vertical surface – The unit can be mounted on a vertical
