How to Install Wiremold Plugmold 2000 9-Outlet Power Strip

Installing the Wiremold Plugmold 2000 involves careful planning, proper electrical discipline, and precise mounting to ensure safety and reliability. Below are general guidelines to help you prepare a clean, compliant installation. Always follow local electrical codes and consult a licensed electrician for configurations involving specialized receptacles or isolated-ground options.

Step 1 — Plan the layout: Determine where the power distribution line will run, how many outlets are needed in each area, and whether single or alternating circuits are required. Measure the length of the wall or surface where the Plugmold will be installed and verify access to power sources, outlets, and devices. Identify mounting surfaces (concrete, drywall with studs, wood substrates) and gather appropriate mounting hardware recommended by the manufacturer for the chosen finish and length.

Step 2 — Power down and prepare: Ensure the main power is de-energized in the installation area. If you’re wiring a new circuit, obtain the correct circuit breaker and the appropriate gauge wire per local codes. Inspect the Plugmold kit for all components, including mounting brackets, end caps, and prewired receptacle sections. Confirm that receptacle options (standard or isolated ground) align with your electrical plan.

Step 3 — Mount the channel: Position the Plugmold channel along the planned route. Use fasteners suited to the mounting surface (screws into studs for drywall, concrete anchors for masonry, or wood screws for wooden backsplashes). Leave a small clearance at the ends to accommodate end caps and allow clean cable entry. Ensure the channel is level and securely fastened to prevent movement during use. If you’re mounting under desks or benchtops, support brackets or mounting rails may be required to maintain stability and code compliance.

Step 4 — Wire or connect receptacles: Depending on config, connect the Snapicoil harnesses or field wiring to the receptacles as specified by the assembly instructions. Maintain correct polarity and grounding. If isolated grounding is chosen, route the isolated ground conductor to the appropriate terminal and ensure it remains isolated from the equipment grounding conductor. Apply strain relief where required to safeguard against pull-out from cords or devices. Double-check all connections for tightness and alignment before energizing the system.

Step 5 — End caps and covers: Install end caps, faceplates, or any required cover plates to seal the ends of the Plugmold channel. This not only creates a neat, professional appearance but also improves safety by reducing the risk of loose wiring exposure. Confirm that all screws are tightened and that the channel edges are smooth to prevent cable damage or snag hazards.

Step 6 — Power up and test: Restore power and test each outlet with a circuit tester or manufacturer-recommended testing method. Verify that all nine outlets are energizing properly, if applicable test any USB ports and isolated-ground receptacles, and confirm circuit balance if you’re using single or alternating configurations. Label circuits to simplify future maintenance and troubleshooting. If any outlet misbehaves, power down and recheck connections or seek professional assistance.

Step 7 — Final checks and ongoing care: Confirm cable management remains neat and unobstructed. Periodically inspect mounting hardware for looseness and monitor for signs of wear on harnesses or end caps. Keep the area around the Plugmold clear of debris, moisture, or heat sources, and ensure the environment remains within the manufacturer’s recommended operating conditions to maximize longevity.
