IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS:
Use the local electrical code approved installation when
installing this product.
The electrical parts in this kit are designed to be used
only as a kit and none of these electrical parts are
designed to be used individually.
This product is not designed to be part of your home or a
commercial building’s electrical wiring system.
This installation is only energized (electrically active)
when the supplied 6 ft. cord is plugged into the recessed
straight blade inlet located on the recessed low voltage
cable plate and the straight blade end of the 6 ft. cord is
plugged into either your surge protector or wall
receptacle.
If you are not familiar with home wiring systems, please
call a qualified electrician to install this product.
Installation Instructions for New Construction:
Simply use a new nail on box and follow all other instructions
described in the retrofit portion of the instruction sheet.
Installation Instructions for Retrofit Only:
1. Select the location of your flat panel TV mounting
bracket. Now select the location for both the 45-0021WH Recessed Low Voltage Cable Plate with Recessed
Power and the Recessed Low Voltage Cable Plate with
Recessed Straight Blade Inlet.
2. Both the Recessed Low Voltage Cable Plate with
Recessed Power and the Recessed Low Voltage Cable
Plate with Recessed Straight Blade Inlet are designed to
be mounted between two studs (see Figure 1). Using
the template supplied (see back of instruction sheet),
trace the openings needed for both recessed cable
plates. Using a drywall knife cut a hole in the drywall the
size of the template.
3. Remember that the Pro-Power Kit is not part of your
home’s electrical wiring system. Before installing the
single gang retrofit workboxes (see Figure 2), pull a
piece of 12/2 or 14/2 with ground UL approved building
wire from one opening to the other opening to connect
the recessed cable plate with recessed power to the
recessed cable plate with recessed straight blade inlet.
Make sure the piece of wire is long enough to allow for
easy installation of the receptacles. Insert a single gang
retrofit workbox (see Figure 2). Securely fasten the
workbox to the wall.

Installation Instructions 45-0023-WH (continued):
4. To connect the receptacle on the Recessed Cable Plate with
Recessed Power to the piece of 12/2 or 14/2 with ground UL
approved building wire that you pulled from one opening in the
drywall to the second opening in the drywall, strip off
approximately 3 inches of the outer jacket of the UL approved
building wire. Be careful not to cut the jacket of the inner wires.
Connect the hot line (black) wire to the brass colored terminal
screw and neutral (white) wire to the silver colored terminal
screw. Be sure to connect the grounding (green) or bare
grounding wire to the green colored terminal screw (see
Figure 3).
5. Once you have wired the Recessed Cable Plate with Recessed
Power receptacle, begin by inserting the receptacle portion of
the plate into the retrofit work box. Once the entire recessed
plate is flush to the wall, using the two white screws supplied,
screw the receptacle portion of the plate to the work box. Next,
screw down the screws with wings. The wings will fasten tightly
against the back of the drywall. Plug all necessary video and
audio cables through the opening on the Recessed Cable Plate
with Recessed Power and down the wall to the opening you cut
out for the Recessed Cable Plate with Recessed Straight Blade
Inlet.
6. To connect the Recessed Cable Plate with Straight Blade Inlet to
the piece of 12/2 or 14/2 with ground UL approved building wire,
use the supplied three wire nuts. Connect the hot line (black)
wire to black wire, neutral (white) wire to white wire and
grounding (green) wire to the (green) or bare grounding wire
(see Figure 4). Make sure the three wire nuts are fastened
tightly. Plug all necessary video and audio cables through the
opening on the Recessed Cable Plate with Straight Blade Inlet.
Insert the straight blade inlet portion of the plate into the retrofit
work box. Once the entire recessed plate is flush to the wall,
using the two white screws supplied, screw the straight blade
inlet portion of the plate to the work box. Next, screw down the
screws with wings. The wings will fasten tightly against the back
of the drywall. Make sure to keep your UL approved building
wire away from the video and audio cables (see Figure 2).
