Installing a Plywood Base to the Wall

114
A plywood base is recommended when installing the switch on a wall that
has wooden studs. Refer to "Plywood Base for a Wall with Wooden Studs"
on page 113. Consult a qualified building contractor for installation
instructions for the plywood base. Refer to Figure 40. The installation
guidelines are listed here:
Use a stud finder to identify the middle of studs and hot electrical

wiring in the wall.
Attach the base to two wall studs with a minimum of four screws.

The selected wall location for the base must provide sufficient

space from other devices or walls so that you can access the front
and back panels, and for adequate air flow for ventilation.
