Installation Guidance, Tips & Tricks

Use Indoors Only: Use the cover plate only indoors to suit its IP20 rating and keep the finished installation tidy.

 

Confirm RE491 Compatibility: Ensure the installation uses the RE491 slab box before fitting the cover plate for a consistent, well aligned finish.

 

Check 70mm Cut-Out: Verify the cut-out is 70mm and clear so the cover plate sits correctly and presents a neat opening for a compatible fitting.

 

Align And Seat Flush: Center the cover plate over the cut-out and press it into place so it sits flush for a professional, tidy appearance.

 

Maintain Consistent Alignment: Match the orientation and spacing of nearby fittings and plates so ceilings in homes, offices, and shops look uniform.
