Chapter 6: Installing the Switch on a Wall

Installing a Plywood Base
A plywood base is recommended when installing the switch on a wall that
has wooden studs. Refer to Figure 73. Consult a qualified building
contractor for installation instructions for the plywood base. The
installation guidelines are listed here:
Use a stud finder to identify the middle of studs and hot electrical
wiring in the wall.
Attach the base to two wall studs with a minimum of four screws.
The selected wall location for the base must provide sufficient
space from other devices or walls so that you can access the front
and back panels, and for adequate air flow for ventilation.
