How would you conceal the electrical outlet wire to give this a clean look? Thanks in advance.

The front panel is wider than the rest of the unit and is removable. The cord comes out of the bottom right so I located my wall outlet as close as possible to the far left side. The cord wraps up the right side runs along the top and down the left side. It tucks between the front class and the base of the unit. The plug and outlet can only be seen from the very left side but the cord is hidden.

You could put a hole in the drywall behind the unit and one next to the outlet and fish the cord through

I happened to hang it where there is an outlet behind it, so my landlord attached the mount to a piece of wood and tucked the cord in the back so it won't show.

I have mine running through the tv opening in wall already because it's mounted right under

This may be dependent upon electrical coding regulations in your town. If the outlet is near the spot where you will be mounting the fireplace you can create a hole near the bottom area of the wall behind the fireplace and fish it through to plug into the outlet.

The plate installs flat against the wall I don't see how this would be possible nor safe.As another potential solution you can move the plate. I moved the plate directly behind the tv then installed the bar power cord in that hidden outlet. You can also buy a strip from Home Depot/lowes to hide the power cord as a cheaper solution.hope this helps.

You should remove the existing socket cover so you have something to screw the outlets into... might be possible to remove the screw from the current outlet and screw this in, but is not designed to be used as such...

You would have to add weatherproof conduit/wire clamp connection. The hole for the wire access is on the bottom of the connection box, so it is protected by gravity. Be sure that the wire cable loops downward to avoid any water flow along the cable. This is very standard for a weather exposed electrical connection. The cover of the connection box has a gasket seal for water protection.

Run the wire through the studs, this is a very low voltage...less than a few c batteries together. hiding them is best and easiest if you have the wall avail...buy a long drill bit...piece of cake

Just follow the directions (the received fits snugly into the cover-just leave the wire exposed). It is a really simple installation but if you're asking this, you may need to hire someone....

This is a plug in light. You would have to strop the plug off first and make the wires ready. Easier to get a light ready to go into the wall line.

It is very low profile, if mounting under cabinet then there should be a lip on cabinet to hide wires. I got some gummed wire holders and used zip ties to tie down.

It is not quite big enough to cover a standard outlet box. I would put a solid plate over the outlet box and then install on either side, preferably on the stud the box is connected too.

I believe the wire is the antenna. Why would you want the antenna to be hidden with no good reception?

I would not bury this directly in the ground, needs to be put into electrical PVC conduit. Or the wire will degrade if installed directly in the dirt,and stop working

i would suggest avoiding adhesive tapes or putting plastic directly against heated cable, maybe twist some metal wires on to help hold, you probably don't want to risk a fire. proper insulation wrap to cover it over is a good idea

remove screws remove old outlet cover, remove wires, reverse order for new cover

You have a couple of questions here- let me attempt to answer the first. Don't believe the design would allow for you to mount directly over an electrical outlet since it is designed to fit flush to the wall. Understand why you want to hide the wires. In lieu of recessed outlet you might consider a spacer board (cut to the size of the mount and around your outlets) to give you a solid mount and a way to connect to outlets. Good luck!

Strip a little extra off the wires on the outlet and make sure they wrap around house wires a few times. Use large wire nuts and tug on the outlet wires to make sure they don't pull out.

It's a totally enclosed fixture. Not an issue. There is a 12volt set of leads on the bottom. These can be buried directly because it's low voltage.

Running a new outlet behind the TV is the cleanest way to go and meets code. I am an electrical contractor and have done several of these. I use a surge protected and power filtered outlet combination from Monster in most cases, although it is a bit pricey. Some of my most "cost-conscious" customers prefer that I install a recessed outlet & quick-port box and then use a surge protector strip which hides behind the TV.Monster MP HTFS-IW HC In-Wall PowerCenter for Custom Installations
