I could not find any instructions on finishing and putting plugs in the Raco 98.0 cu. in. Non-Metallic Floor Box. I put in our foundation http://hq38.hohenfels.com/2013/12/shop-finishing-foundation.html So, here is what I did to get them finished and installed. I used standard plugs and the Raco 1-Gang 1/2 in. Non-Metallic Round Floor Box Cover.
First, I cut the floor box as flush as I could with the concrete floor using a Dremel Multi-Max tool. When they finished the concrete they created a “lip” around the box, so without more work than I want to do, I can not cut it flush with the rest of the floor. The Raco 1-Gang 1/2 in. Non-Metallic Round Floor Box Cover will not be 100% flush with the entire floor. For me that is not a huge issue.
Then put the 4 metal clips in the slots of the plug holder. I had to use a flat tip screw driver to clean out the slots, the Dremel tool melted some plastic into them during the cutting process. Then placed the plug holder on the screws and tightened them down. The 2 all plastic screw holes are where the plug will be placed. You will need to keep this in mind so you orient you plug the way you want it.
Then removed the ears and wired up the plug. Not pictured: I wrapped the connectors with electric tape.
Then put the eyelets in the cover.
Then put the ring plate down and screwed in the plug.
Dropped in the foam cover and put in the center screw.
Then installed the plug cover with the 4 included screws.
Done installing!
Hope that some one finds this useful, Please let me know if you have any questions.
