Application example
Note
The indicated wall thicknesses refer to walls without a fire protection function. The following applies to fire protection walls: Remaining wall thickness must be min. 60 mm. When using halogen lamps, pay attention to maximum power (see product details).
Support technology for boxes and installation housings
Supporting by means of telescopic support: Junction boxes and installation housings can be installed on either side of a wall after the formwork has been placed on one side - either by fixing them directly to the rear (already placed) formwork or by supporting them off the rear formwork via a telescopic support. If the junction box is attached directly to the already-placed formwork or if heavy loading is to be expected due to a large concrete pouring height, additional securing by means of a telescopic support is recommended.

Adjusting the telescopic support to different wall thicknesses
Note
When the formwork is closed, the junction box and the telescopic support are compressed between the formwork panels. The extra 2 cm of length allowed ensures sufficient pressure for a secure fit. Always tighten the hose clamp fully!
