fixing points in the base moulding at 240mm centres. These should be
drilled to a size to suit the fixing screws.
Note: It is responsibility of the installer to ensure these fixing points
are sealed to ensure the IP65 rating is maintained. The use of a
silicone sealant is recommended.
4. Select one of the available cable entry points on the base (one on either
end, on one side, or through the bottom) & drill to suitable size to suit IP65
rated (or better) cable entry gland (not provided).
