1. Ensure that mounting surface is flat and free from loose particles and dirt.
2. Lift the lid then remove the upper portion from the back box by removing the
4 screws on installation. Please note that it is important to use a screwdriver of
a size that allows you to properly tighten these screws on installation.
3. If necessary take the back box and drill a small hole through the drainage point
that will be at the lowest point when mounted. This is necessary to ensure that
any residual moisture or condensation has an escape route at the back of the
box.
4. Use a suitable drill/wall plug for the surface on which you are mounting your
weatherproof enclosure and use No.8 countersunk screws (not supplied) to
secure the back box through the 4 corner holes.

back box. If circumstances permit the best entry point for the supply cable is
the bottom one.

to the back box. If entry of cable is to be direct use a suitable IP rated cable
gland.
