Full details
This Legrand Mosaic recessed frame (model 080253) is designed for electricians and DIY enthusiasts needing a robust and adaptable mounting solution for Céliane and Mosaic Program mechanisms. Its key benefit lies in its reinforced structure and compatibility with Batibox boxes, offering a secure base for electrical installations. A minor caveat is its specific design for three modules, requiring users to ensure it fits their exact needs.

FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the red plastic cover?
The red plastic cover is a protective shield. It is designed to be placed on the frame during painting or other finishing work on the wall, preventing paint or debris from contaminating the mechanism mounting points.
Can I install more than 8 modules in this frame?
No, this frame is designed to support a maximum of 6-8 modules, accommodating three times two modules. Exceeding this limit is not recommended and may compromise stability and functionality.
Is this frame suitable for outdoor use?
This product is designed for indoor electrical installations within a wall cavity. It is not rated for outdoor or wet environments.
What types of electrical mechanisms are compatible with this frame?
This Legrand frame is specifically designed to be compatible with mechanisms from Legrand's Céliane and Mosaic Programs.
Can this frame be mounted on any type of wall?
The frame is designed to be mounted within Legrand Batibox electrical boxes, which are typically installed in plasterboard or dry lining walls. Ensure the Batibox is suitable for your wall type.
Does this product come with mechanisms or faceplates?
No, this product is a cover frame only. Electrical mechanisms and faceplates need to be purchased separately.
Can the frame be mounted horizontally and vertically?
Yes, the frame supports both horizontal and vertical mounting orientations to suit different installation layouts.
Troubleshooting
Frame does not fit securely in the Batibox.
Ensure the Batibox is correctly installed and level. Check that the frame is aligned with the screw holes in the box and that no obstructions are present.
Mechanisms do not clip into the frame properly.
Verify that you are using compatible Céliane or Mosaic mechanisms. Ensure the frame is fully secured to the Batibox and that no paint or debris is obstructing the clipping points.
Frame appears flimsy after installation.
Confirm that the frame's bi-material supports are correctly seated and that all mounting screws are tightened appropriately. Ensure the frame is intended for the number of modules being installed.
