How to use

To install the Legrand Batibox, position the box within the formwork before pouring the concrete. Ensure the box is securely fastened to prevent shifting during the concrete pour. Once the concrete has cured and the formwork is removed, the box will be firmly embedded in the wall, providing a stable base for the subsequent installation of electrical wiring and faceplates. Always ensure that the conduit entries are properly sealed to prevent concrete ingress during the installation process.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the wall type is solid concrete or masonry
• Check the dimensions to ensure compatibility with your specific electrical devices
• Ensure you have the appropriate tools for securing the box within the formwork

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, ensure the box is perfectly level and securely anchored before pouring concrete to avoid misalignment. Always follow local electrical safety regulations and guidelines when performing installations in solid wall structures.
