WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS:
• The Acenti™ Triplex Receptacle uses a multi-function self-grounding clip
that provides an automatic ground connection in a properly grounded metal
wall box.
• Use this device only with copper or copper clad wire. With aluminum wire
use only devices marked CO/ALR or CU/AL.
Installing your Alignment Plate:
Step 3
To achieve proper aesthetic installation of the Acenti products, the wall
surface surrounding the wall box opening must be fairly flat and free of
irregularities. The wall box must be level and recessed or flush to the wall
surface. The Acenti installation system allows for adjustments that will
correct minor flaws that may be present in the installation area.
This device must be installed with the Acenti™ Alignment Plate. The
Alignment Plate is packaged with the Acenti™ Wallplate, which is sold
separately from this device.
The Alignment Plate will function properly only if it is mounted to a flat
wall surface as described above.
• Leviton recommends to temporarily position the Alignment Plate prior
to wiring the device. If the wall box wires extend at least 6 inches out
of the wall box, it is also possible to install the Alignment Plate after
the device has been wired (refer to Wallplate instruction sheet).
• The Alignment Plate must be installed with the tab towards the
bottom.
• Leviton recommends the following 3 methods to temporarily hold the
Alignment Plate – use of device mounting screw, use of wall box wires,
or use of electrical tape (refer to the following figures):
