CAUTION: Always operate audio amplifiers and speakers within their speci-
fied ratings. Excessive input may distort sound quality and may damage
audio equipment. Do not exceed 100% of speaker input voltage per UL 1480.
Improper input voltage can damage speaker. If distortion is heard, check for
clipping of the audio appliance with an oscilloscope and reduce the amplifier
input level or gain level to eliminate any clipping.

WIRING AND MOUNTING INFORMATION

or CAUTION: The following figures show the maximum number of field wires
RMS
(conductors) that can enter the backbox used with each mounting option. If
these limits are exceeded, there may be insufficient space in the backbox to
accommodate the field wires and stresses from the wires could damage the
product. Check that the installed product will have sufficient clearance and
wiring room prior to installing backboxes and conduit, especially if sheathed
multiconductor cable or 3/4-inch (1.9-cm) conduit fittings are used.
Although the limits shown for each mounting option comply with the National
Electrical Code (NEC), Cooper Notification recommends use of the largest
backbox option shown and the use of approved stranded field wires, whenever
possible, to provide additional wiring room for easy installation and minimum
stress on the product from wiring.
NOTE: Surface backbox (SBB) in Figure B is compatible with wiremold and
conduit, mounting holes are for single-gang, double-gang, 4-inch (10.16-cm)
sq. (10.16-cm), 3-1/2-inch (8.9-cm) and 4-inch (10.16-cm) octagon or round
backboxes.
