NOTE:* 20% cable fill is calculated to approximate reduction in cable capacity due to connectors mounted within raceway and fittings that may restrict
cross sectional area.
** 40% cable fill is the maximum designed cable fill base on a proposed revision to TIA/EIA 569-A.
Wiremold Electrical Systems conform with, and should be installed and
properly grounded in compliance with requirement of the current
National Electrical Code or codes administered by local authorities.
All electrical products may represent a possible shock or fire hazard
if improperly installed or used. Wiremold electrical products are UL listed, made for interior use and should be installed by qualified
electrical people in conformance with current local and/or the
National Electrical Code.
Note: Raceway may be configured in single or multiple channels
to accommodate power or communications wiring.

AL2409 GROUND ADAPTER
AL2451H BOX ADAPTER
At AL2400B base section butt joints, slide AL2401 Coupling
into flathead first base section than slide next base to surface.
Center coupling on joint. Tighten locking screws.
To attach AL2400B base section to mounting surface, drill 9/32"
holes in the base (approx. 48" o/c.) fasten base with #8 head
screws. Snap AL2400C cover to complete installation.
Use for feed raceway from existing wall outlet box. To install,
attach adapter to outlet box with two screws. This system
is designed with capacity for additional feed or
circuitry conductors.
Position AL2409 Ground Clamp into rib in AL2400 raceway
base. Tighten locking screw. attach ground wire using
brass cup washer and green hex nut to ground lug.
AL2406 COVER CLIP AL2400P-D SERIES
To close any gaps at either the base or the cover that occur
from field cutting, Snap AL2406 Cover Clip over the joints
on the assembled raceway.
For AL2400P-D series duplex plates, Install wiring to devices
as required. Attach device to plate using #6 screws and
"Kep"nut (Provided) Snap device plate onto AL2400B
raceway base.
