How to install Panduit Pan-Way Raceway

• Plan your route carefully: determine the most direct path along walls, avoiding doorways and obstructions, and mark mounting points at consistent intervals to ensure a level run.
• Prepare the surface: clean the wall surface where the base will be mounted, and verify that the chosen mounting points are secure and suitable for wall fasteners.
• Cut and fit: if your run requires turns or joints, trim the base channel to length and prepare any required joints or fittings according to the kit instructions.
• Mount the base: secure the base to the wall using the appropriate fasteners for the wall material; ensure a straight, level line before tightening to avoid misalignment.
• Seal and cap: snap the cover onto the base, route cables through the channel, and install end caps or fittings as needed to complete the enclosure and protect exposed conductors.
• Test and adjust: confirm that cables move smoothly within the raceway, verify clearance around corners, and adjust as necessary to maintain a clean, professional appearance.
