Στερεώστε τα καλώδια περιμετρικά της κάσας φέρνοντάς τα μέχρι το σημείο που πρόκειται να στηρίξετε τη συσκευή. Προτεινόμενο σημείο είναι στην επάνω γωνία της πόρτας από την πλευρά που βρίσκονται οι διακόπτες φωτισμού. Στο σημείο εκείνο συνήθως υπάρχει το μπουάτ (κυτίο επίσκεψης ηλεκτρικών καλωδίων) της παροχής ρεύματος.

: There are no fuses in these boxes. "Service box" might be accurate but might be confused with "service panel".

trip box/ R.C.D ( Residual Current Device) box
Fuse box= trip box/R.C.D ( old type 'fuse box' MODERN type R.C.D
Fuses (with thin wires) which fused/burnt out when there was a surge of excessive voltage'
R.C.D ( a trip) is NOW used, which is WITHOUT wires to fuse, but when there is a voltage surge this trips or DROPS. It is like a switch that 'switches off'. Instead of changing the fuse, which melted', in old fuse boxes, in the trip box the switch(call it fuse) just switches off and all you have to do is switch back ON again.
