GE-R4 INSTALLATION  

GE-R4 

Section B-6

General installation guidelines 

GE-R4 Module 

It is recommended to install the module unit in a hallway to limit the GE-R4 exposure 
to noxious gases. 

-  In order to avoid condensation problems inside the module, it is recommended to 

install the GE-R4

 

on an inside wall. If it is not possible, use spacers to have an air gap 

between the wall and the GE-R4. 

-  It is required to install the GE-R4 right side up with the cable entry holes facing 

down. 

-  The enclosure is watertight, but do not spray water or submerge the GE-R4 in water. 

Cover it carefully with plastic when cleaning the room. 

-  The GE-R4 should be installed in easy-access location but away from damaging 

elements (heat, cold, water, direct sunlight, …).  

Do not drill the face, the side, the top or the underside of the control. 

-  Do not install the GE-R4 module near high-voltage equipment, power supply or 

transformer. 

Electrical Cables 

All electrical cables must be installed according to local wiring codes. 

-  Use separate conduits for the low voltage cables (communication) and the high 

voltage cables. There must be at least 30 cm (1 foot) between low-voltage and high-
voltage conduits. 

-  If a low voltage cable has to cross over a high voltage cable, make this crossing at 

90°. 

It is prohibited to use overhead cables outside the building. 

Electrical Power  

-  Protection from electrical surges should be included in the planning of each 

installation. 

Every module should have a separate breaker to avoid possible problem.
