Arlington TVB613 — Recessed Double-Gang TV Box Installation Guide

Specification and installation guide for the Arlington TVB613 Recessed Double-Gang TV Box — lets you mount a flat-screen TV flush against the wall with power and low-voltage connections hidden behind it.

Overview

The TVB613 is a 13" wide, non-metallic recessed electrical box that mounts between 16" on-center studs, for either new construction or old-work (retrofit) installations. Its double-gang, combo box design lets you install two duplex power receptacles, or use the included box separator to run one low-voltage device alongside one power duplex receptacle. Two additional built-in mounts accommodate low-voltage data/media connections such as speakers, satellite TV, and surround sound.

Because the box is recessed, plugs don't extend past the wall — the TV can sit flush, or furniture can be pushed closer to the wall.
