Mounting the AT72D Transformer.
Mounting Transformer and Plate to Electrical
Box
Mount the transformer to meet the application. Use one
of the methods illustrated. The transformer can be
mounted in any position.
The mounting plate can be mounted to 4 in. x 4 in. boxes
with regular and irregular spaced mounting holes, to 2 in
by 4 in. boxes and to 4 in. octagonal boxes. See Fig. 21.

Punch out appropriate knockouts for plate
mounting holes, if necessary.
Plate Mounting.
The mounting plate allows the transformer to be mounted
on a 4 in. by 4 in. square or 4 in. octagonal junction box.
NOTE: Transformer feet should always be outside of
the junction box.

Clamp Mounting Using Junction Box Knockout
2
Take transformer in one hand and mounting plate
in the other hand. Keyhole slots on mounting plate
should be up.
The transformer can also be clamp mounted using a
junction box knockout, if desired. This mounting option
does not require the use of the mounting plate. To mount
the transformer within the knockout:
3.
Place large knockout in mounting plate over pri-
mary leadwires and end bell of transformer. The
small tab on the bottom center of the plate fits into
the slot in the transformer mounting feet (Fig. 20).
Insert the mounting screw through the holes as
illustrated.

Insert the primary leadwires and clamp and screw
on transformer end bell through suitable 1/2 in. (13
mm) knockout in junction box. Clamp screw must
be turned almost completely out in order to get
clamp through knockout.

Secure the plate to the transformer. Do not
overtighten.
2.
Tighten clamp screw securely against rim of
knockout. Avoid damaging the leadwires with the
screwdriver.
Mounting plate to transformer (Fig. 17).
The plate can be mounted to the transformer in one of
two positions:
PLATE MOUNTED AT CLAMP ON END BELL
(
ALL ABOVE PLATE MOUNTING)
a. at the clamp on primary end bell (transformer
all above plate);

b. at the laminations (transformer 3/4 above plate.
To mount the plate at clamp on primary end bell
(
