About this detail

Cold-formed metal studs and wallboard support a surface-mounted electrical panel cabinet. The assembly comprises metal framing studs supporting sheet rock or other approved wall surface material, backed by a structural mounting plate for weight distribution. The panel cabinet is secured using six one-quarter-inch by one-and-one-half-inch self-drilling TEK screws complying with ICC-ESR-3223, spaced evenly with three on each side. Fender washers are required on all screws, supporting regular enclosures up to 150 pounds or isolation panels up to 225 pounds maximum. The center of gravity for the cabinet is positioned at plus 50 inches from the top of the floor with a maximum height of six feet six inches to the finished floor.
