Installation 

 
The AA-04 is designed to be permanently attached to a wall or other fixed vertical 
surface. 
 

Positioning 

 
The AA-04 should be mounted in a convenient position for use and wiring.  
 
During installation, wired connections will need to be made and allowance should be 
made for the installation of electrical conduit or trunking if required to make entry to 
the unit. 
 
Ideally the AA-04 should be attached directly to the wall with the cables being fed 
from within the wall. For hollow walls this should be straightforward. For solid walls it 
may be easiest and neatest to feed the cables right through the wall from the other 
side. 
 
Alternatively the AA-04 may be attached to a round conduit box which may be buried 
or surface-mounted, though this last option will result in the unit projecting further 
from the wall, making it less stable and more vulnerable. 
 
It is recommended that there must be a flat unobstructed area of wall extending at 
least 70mm above and 110mm below the mounting centre to allow fitment and 
removal. 
 
If a Lasermet Miniature Warning Sign is being fitted above the AA-04 the centres 
should be at least 140mm apart vertically. 
 
Refer  to  Figure  6  for  details  of  the  fixing  holes  and  cable  entry.  The  wallplate  and 
locking plate are secured using preferably four screws on a 35.4mm square around 
the cable entry point. The locking plate and plastic wallplate disk are pre-drilled and 
may be used as a marking template. If using a round conduit box, the holes will align 
with the cover fixing holes. 
 
Once  all  the  holes  have  been  made,  secure  the  wallplate  and  the  locking  plate  as 
shown  in  figure  6  with  the  plastic  wallplate  against  the  wall.  Check  that  the  plastic 
wallplate and locking plate are aligned as shown. 
 
Feed the cables through the hole in the centre of the locking plate. 
 

NOTE:

 Make the electrical connections before attaching the unit to the wallplate, see 

the Wiring section.
