MOUNTING
All Power Extenders must have 4-1/2" spacing above
and below each unit for proper ventilation and heat
dissipation (refer to figure 3). Line voltage wiring
should be at least 6ft away from sound or electronic
equipment wiring. Mount Power Extender to wall box
with “TOP” facing up as follows: For Wall Box
Mounting (refer to figure 1), for Flush Mounting
(refer to figure 2) and for Panel Mounting (not
shown), proceed as follows:
a. The enclosure must be in
accordance with all local and
national electrical codes.
b. Leviton DOES NOT recommend
using a door to enclose the front
of a panel, since this restricts
airflow to the controls.
c. If mounting multiple controls in
an enclosure:
• Ambient timperature within an
enclosure “MUST REMAIN
BETWEEN”32

• If not mounting in a metal
enclosure, all units “MUST” be
mounted in a wall box.
d. To improve heat dissipation of
controls, remove the faceplate
from the unit.
