“Beta” is a system similar to “Alpha” but providing that extra space required in many situations by way of a 200mm high face plate and 76mm deep wall box. Electrical components are
mounted on a one piece adjustable height metal grid plate. Medical gas outlets can also be catered for by being fixed directly to the face panel, which, in turn, is attached to the standard wall box via an adaptor plate

Component Mounting
The “Beta” system has, for maintenance safety and convenience, an earthed metal grid plate to which all components are mounted. This grid plate, while being screw adjustable in height to suit varying plaster or render thicknesses, is readily removed from the wall box during installation or maintenance simply by releasing a retainer clip in each corner. This operation does not alter the adjusted height of the grid on replacement. Standard grid plates, suitable for the majority of applications, are stocked in sizes to suit the full range of “Beta” wall boxes.
Surface Mounting
While the majority of new installations are flush within the walls, many existing buildings may find it more practical to surface mount such equipment. For this purpose, a full range of stainless steel surface mounting surrounds are available from stock to suit “Beta” wall boxes.
