rail adapters for other rail styles and wall mount adapters are
available as accessory kits.

installed by certified technician. The technician is
responsible for ensuring that grounding is available that
meets applicable regional regulatory and electrical
standards.

impérativement être installés par un professionnel agréé.
Ce dernier doit s'assurer que l'appareil est mis à la terre et
que le circuit de mise à la terre est conforme aux codes
électriques nationaux en vigueur.
