INSTRUCTION/INSTALLATION SHEET

Core Line Enclosure with Cover

IS-0366 REV. C

1. Introduction

The On-Q/Legrand Core Line Enclosures are available in four sizes, 14”, 20”, 28” and 42”. Each size of enclosure is

available with a hinged cover (includes lock assembly), or with a screw on cover, or as separate products; enclosure

only, hinged cover only or screw on cover only.

2. Enclosure Installation

Locate the enclosure centrally in the house to minimize the length of cable runs and in a climate controlled area.

Temperature must be from 0°C (32°F) to 50°C (122°F). Humidity is to be controlled to not condense in the

enclosures. The enclosure must be located to assure that the electrical outlet, if installed in the enclosure, is installed

in compliance to all NEC wiring requirements. This is particularly important if the enclosure is located in a basement

and may be subject to flooding.

CAUTION: For any limitations on enclosure locations, consult local electrical and building codes before

installing enclosures.

NOTE: The enclosure is not weather proof and should not be located outside or where temperature changes

and humidity may allow condensation in the enclosure.

NOTE: The enclosure is not fire rated and should not be mounted in fire rated walls.

The enclosure may be either surface mounted or recess mounted between studs installed on 16 inch centers.

Surface Mounting-

Typical surface mounting is on a 3/4 inch plywood back board.

A. Securely mount plywood with rear access knockouts accessible, if

needed.

B. If cable access is to be through the back of enclosure, remove wire

access knockouts from rear of enclosure. (See Figure 1).

C. Position enclosure in desired location and mark top of center keyhole

opening located on the top center of enclosure (See Figure 1).

D. Install mounting wood screw at mark. Head must be ½” clearance from

the back.

E. Hang enclosure on screw and mark four (4) mounting holes and wire

access holes on plywood. (See Figure 1). Also mark top and bottom of

enclosure.

F. If cable access is from the rear, remove enclosure and cut access holes in plywood for cables.

Note - Access hole may be a large slot, provided it does not extend beyond the enclosure. Remove all rough

edges to prevent cable damage.

G. Attach enclosure to wall using wood screws. Remove the top centering

screw to avoid interference with modules.

Note - It may be easier to rough-in cable and feed cables through plywood

prior to attaching the enclosure

Recessed mounting-

There are two methods for recess mounting the enclosure. In half inch drywall

installations the enclosure may be mounted to the front of the studs. Bend out

the side tabs on each side to 90 degrees (see Figure 2). Position the enclosure

to the desired height and fasten using standard screws into the slots in the tabs.
