On the back half of the remote socket you will see that there are 4 circular shaped disks
(‘Entry blanks’) on each side (3 are plastic, 1 is rubber). Depending on if you wish to link up
more than one ‘Outdoor remote socket’ you can remove or replace these disks.
It is recommended that the bottom most ‘Entry blank’ should be removed to gain entry
into the ‘Outdoor Remote Socket’ . This will help keep the moisture out.
If installing the outdoor socket with conduit from the sides or top attachment, a 5mm hole
must be drilled through the bottom left drainage hole. This will allow for any condensation
forming in the conduit, to drain out.
Caution: opening the drainage hole will effect the IP rating of the product. Ensure that
jetted water is not directly sprayed onto the unit.
Do Not drill out the drainage hole when installing the
Outdoor socket into a dusty environment. Always install
the unit via the bottom cable entry, making sure that a
5mm hole is drilled into the lowest point in the conduit
