The dimensions of the RAB71 wall case are: 42" wide by 16" high by 13 3/4" deep, the same dimensions as the original wall case for GE Zoneline units built in 1961. The RAB71 wall case is also available in depths other than the standard depth of 13 3/4". - Page 24 Sub-Base (Cont.) There are separate internal compartments to permit separation of low voltage (Class 2) connections from line voltage connections as required by NEC. Conduit containing building wiring enters the sub-base through knockouts located in the rear or bottom of the sub-base and is not accessible when the wall case is installed.
- Page 25 Masonry Wall Construction (Cont.) The wall case should be installed during construction and lintels should be used to support the blocks above the wall case. The wall case will not support the concrete block. The installation instructions show how the wall case must be secured to the masonry and caulked.

Page 57: General Suggestions
Consult the electrical inspector early in the project, especially if the power to the air conditioner is to be 265 volts, to understand what is required to comply with local electrical codes. - Page 58 There were a number of Zoneline units installed in ducted installations that did not use a GE duct adapter. The easiest way to determine if the existing duct adapter is a GE duct adapter is to compare the duct adapter dimensions to the dimensions above.
