Panel board front trim, A Series, flush mount
The AF49FDN is a panel board front trim from the A Series, sized at 49.500 in high by 20 in wide. It is designed for flush mounting, meaning the trim sits level with the surrounding wall surface once the box is recessed — a clean finish for commercial or industrial distribution panels where the enclosure face is part of the room wall. The NEMA 1 rating means this trim is intended for indoor use only, providing protection against incidental contact with live parts and falling dirt. The front trim is hinged to the box, giving swing-open access to the panel interior for breaker or fuse servicing without removing the trim entirely. The nameplate is included on the trim face, matching the panel's identification to the distribution schedule.
Flush mounting requires the back box to be recessed into the wall or enclosure frame so the trim flange overlaps the finished surface. The 49.500 in height and 20 in width are the trim outer dimensions — verify the box opening matches the trim's required cutout, which is typically slightly smaller than the trim overall to allow the flange to seat against the wall. Because this is a front trim only (no interior deadfront or pan assembly), it pairs with the corresponding A Series panel board interior and box. The hinge and latch hardware are factory-assembled to the trim; no field drilling or alignment adjustment is needed beyond securing the trim to the box studs.
