2. Fasten the panel backbox to the wall surface where indicated in Figure 2 using fasteners
that are suitable for the type of wall surface and weight of the backbox and panel, including
standby batteries.

power-limited and non-power limited wiring.
Refer to “Panel backbox wire routing” on page 5.
To semiflush mount the panel backbox:
1. Frame the interior wall (as required) to support the entire weight of the fully installed control
unit, including standby batteries.
2. Install a semiflush trim ring (optional) to the backbox.
3. Route the field wiring through the designated knock-out locations to ensure separation of
