continued
Standard Deck Plates
For Starting Blocks with Two Legs:
Standard deck plates consist of a connection hub
mounted to a Carlon PVC box in the pool deck. All
the electrical components plug into this connection
hub, or deck plate.
Deck Plate Location and
Installation
Place the deck box at the intersection of lines
centered between the legs of the starting block and
centered between the pool edge and the legs of the
block. Leave at least a 3-inch clearance perimeter
around the entire deck box to accommodate the deck
plate.
For Starting Blocks with a Single Leg:
Consider pool deck traffic when planning the location
of deck boxes, to which the deck plates are mounted.
Cables will be connected to the deck plate during the
competition:
l with the QuickConnect style, the cable between
the connection hub and the deck plate will be
connected
l with the standard style, cables from the
touchpads, backup buttons and RJPs will be
connected
For safety reasons, deck boxes should be placed
beneath the starting platform, between the pool end
wall and the starting block leg(s).
Place the deck box in line with the starting block
mounting plate and centered between the pool edge
and the leg of the starting block. Leave at least a
3-inch clearance perimeter around the entire deck box
to accommodate the deck plate.
