Transformer Assembly
The Transformer Assembly plugs into the Main Board and is mounted on the side of the
chassis which mounts in the backbox. The Transformer Assembly comes in a 120 VAC
or a 240 VAC version.
Enclosure
The enclosure is manufactured of painted sheet steel and is sized to fit between 16”
O.C. wall studs and to be recessable in a semi-flush installation. Because of the need
to segregate high voltage and nonpower-limited circuits from power-limited circuits,
there are a limited number of acceptable conduit entry points. Combination 1/2 or 3/4
inch conduit knockouts are provided in the top and bottom of the backbox. The door
assembly mounts with slip hinges and locks for service access. A 12 Amp Hour battery
set may mounted in the bottom of the enclosure. Batteries larger than 12 AH require an
external UL listed battery cabinet.
