4. Installation

Trin før installation:

1. Sluk for strømmen ved afbryderen eller sikringsboksen.
2. Fjern den eksisterende vægplade og udtag.

Wiring Methods:

The Leviton T5820-W outlet supports Quickwire terminations and traditional side wiring. Always ensure connections are secure.

Quickwire Termination:

For Quickwire terminations, only 14-gauge solid copper wire is permitted by UL standards. Insert the stripped end of the 14-gauge solid copper wire into the Quickwire hole until it is firmly seated.

Side Wiring:

For larger than 14-gauge wire or stranded wire, use the side wiring method. Wrap the stripped end of the wire clockwise around the appropriate terminal screw (brass for hot, silver for neutral, green for ground) and tighten the screw securely.

Back Wiring:

If available on your specific model, back wiring involves inserting the stripped wire into a hole next to the screw and tightening the screw to clamp the wire. This method is also suitable for larger gauge or stranded wires.

Trin efter installation:

1. Once wired, carefully push the outlet back into the wall box.
2. Secure the outlet to the wall box with the mounting screws.
3. Monter vægpladen.
4. Gendan strømmen til afbryderen eller sikringsboksen.
5. Test the outlet to ensure proper function.

This outlet requires minimal maintenance. To clean, ensure power is off at the circuit breaker. Wipe the surface with a soft, damp klud. Brug ikke slibende rengøringsmidler eller opløsningsmidler, da disse kan beskadige overfladen eller de indvendige komponenter.

• Kontakt en elektriker: If you are unable to resolve the issue, contact a qualified electrician for assistance.
