Key specifications

• Type: 1-gang surface-mounted housing
• Color: Pure white
• Compatibility: Gira E2 design line
• Installation method: Surface-mounted

How to use

To install the housing, first ensure the power supply is disconnected. Secure the housing base to the wall surface using appropriate screws and wall plugs suitable for your wall material. Once the base is fixed, connect the electrical wiring to your switch or socket mechanism according to local electrical regulations. Finally, snap the Gira E2 frame and the corresponding insert into the housing to complete the installation, ensuring all components are firmly seated.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing electrical inserts are compatible with the Gira E2 series.
• Ensure the wall surface is flat enough to allow for a secure fit of the housing.
• Check that the dimensions of the housing meet your specific space requirements.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, ensure that the wiring is neatly organized within the housing to prevent overcrowding, which can make it difficult to snap the frame into place. Always use appropriate mounting hardware for your specific wall type to ensure long-term stability.
