TP&N board

Former Community Member over 5 years ago

Hi all, what's the best sequence when installing a new TP&N board.

1) hang on wall and then build.

2) build and hang on wall

3) none of the above

Hate doing things twice!

Will be installing steel trunking to bring cables into DB and tails from below using steel trunking and 32mm bushes.

Regards Ts.

Assuming that it is reasonably accessible, I can think of three reasons to hang first.

(1) It may be easier to get to the fixing holes.

(2) It will be lighter.

(3) It won't move when you do the fiddly bits.

If you need to drill any holes, do that on the bench.
