Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of this flex outlet should always be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with local building regulations. Ensure that your existing back box is at least 34mm deep to accommodate the depth of the unit. For maintenance, clean the surface only with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or chemical solvents, as these can strip the brushed brass finish and cause permanent discoloration or scratching.
