Setup and Installation
Follow these steps for proper installation of your wall plate:
- Turn off Power: Locate the circuit breaker or fuse that controls the power to the outlet you will be working on and turn it off. Verify power is off using a voltage tester.
- Remove Old Wall Plate (if applicable): Carefully remove the existing wall plate and outlet from the electrical box.
- Wire the Power Outlet: Connect the electrical wires to the 15 Amp power outlet. Typically, this involves connecting the hot (black) wire to the brass screw, the neutral (white) wire to the silver screw, and the ground (green or bare copper) wire to the green screw. Ensure all connections are tight and secure.
- Connect HDMI Cable (Rear): Insert one end of your HDMI cable into the HDMI port on the back of the wall plate module. This is a toolless connection, simply push the cable firmly into the female jack.
- Mount the Assembly: Gently push the wired outlet and HDMI module into the electrical box. Use the provided mounting screws to secure the main wall plate frame to the electrical box. Ensure it is flush with the wall.
- Attach Screwless Cover Plate: Align the screwless cover plate over the main wall plate frame and snap it into place. The design ensures a clean, fastener-free appearance.
