Appendix | Mounting, ganging, and derating
Mounting requirements and how to understand ganging and derating
Individual devices
Individual dimmers, switches, wall sensors, and
accessories typically mount in standard 1-gang
electrical boxes (fig. A).
Standard ganging
Ganging is the side-by-side mounting of two
or more dimmers or accessory devices under
a multi-gang wallplate. (fig. B-D)
A1-gang box
(W: 2 in x H: 3 in x D: 2.5 in)
B2-gang box
(W: 4 in x H: 3 in x D: 2.5 in)
Standard multi-gang installation:
•
Uses standard multi-gang electrical backboxes
•
Uses standard multi-gang wallplates
Requires fins to be removed from dimmers for
proper spacing (“Fins Broken” ganging)
C3-gang box
(W: 6 in x H: 3 in x D: 2.5 in)
•
May require derating (i.e., reduction of
dimmer capacity due to fin removal);
see derating tables, pg. 181
•
Custom Architectural ganging
Architectural dimmers, switches and accessories
may be ganged without derating (fig. E), via
custom Architectural multi-gang:
• May require customized, wider-thanstandard wallplates
•
•
•
D4-gang box
(W: 8 in x H: 3 in x D: 2.5 in)
E(2) 1-gang boxes
with 3/4 in spacer
May require wider-than-standard
electrical backboxes
Allows full capacity (“No Fins Broken”) ganging
Required for Nova® dimmers and for larger width
(high capacity) architectural controls
Visit www.lutron.com/customganging
for additional information
•
Light load power interfaces (pg. 185)
Interfaces typically mount to a standard electrical
junction box (fig. F); must be mounted within 7
degrees of vertical. Maximum output: 5.1 in x 6.3 in.
Interfaces project 1.2 in in front of box.
Ceiling/wall mount sensors (pgs. 43 and 147)
Wireless ceiling mount Radio Powr SavrTM sensors
(fig. G) mount to brackets provided with sensor using
adhesive strips or mounting hardware provided.
