Now the lantern is installed, you can create the groove/s required in the timber
reveals, to house the vent actuator cabling. Mark a line down the timber reveal,
vertically level with
the grommet’s position. Use the line as a guide to notch a
groove into the timber
structure. This will house the cabling when it is fed
through the upstand, and allow it to run into the property. Ensure the groove is
deep enough to expose the hole you have prepared in the bottom of the upstand
and house the cable sufficiently, so it will not obstruct the plasterboard when
applied to the reveals later on.

You can now run the cable that comes from the vent actuator through the hole
in the upstand frame above the blind trim, out through the bottom of the unit
and into the groove you have formed in the reveal. You will need to extend the
cable to the chosen location of your rocker switch/climate control panel. Once
the vent has been fully wired in and checked, the installer can then proceed to
plaster the inside reveals, as per the finishing guidelines shown in the
installation guide.
Be sure to instruct the installer not to put plasterboard fixings
where the cabling is located in the reveal.
