Twin-70 raceway base, 10 foot length. Supplied with pre-punched mounting holes. 2' of cover needed for every 1' of Twin-70 base.How to Install the Lay-In Wireway
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for assembling and installing the Lay-In Wireway, ensuring proper sealing and support.
Estimated time: 1h
Tools needed:
Screwdriver, Drill, Wrench
Supplies needed:
Mounting screws, Gaskets, Nuts, Sealing plates
- Assemble the wireway sections
Place a gasket between the flanges of the wireway sections and secure them with screws and nuts as shown in the assembly details.
- Seal the joints
For joints between lay-in sections, position the LSGQR fitting, leaving out the top flange screw on the hinge side. Install the fitting with a shoulder bolt through the flange and ensure gaskets are visible from above.
- Install the wireway
Mount the assembled wireway to the desired location, ensuring it is level and securely attached. Use appropriate anchors if necessary.
- Connect the box entries
Make a cutout in the control enclosure for the wireway entry. Position the box connector and gasket inside the enclosure, then install a 90° angle sealing plate as described in the sealing methods.
- Adjust and anchor the telescope fitting
Assemble the telescope fitting with the compression ring and gasket. Insert it into the straight section and adjust to the desired length. Drill holes through the fitting and section to anchor it securely.
- Calibrate the installation
After installation, verify all connections and seals are tight. Use a multimeter to check for continuity if the wireway is used for grounding.
