Building a mostly remote camera system

Step 3 Assembling the cabinet components

Start by disassembling the cabinet.
Take the door off the GFCI out and the mounting plate out.

Drill 3 2" holes into the cabinet.
Drill holes for the 1/4" mounting bolts.
This camera came with a template for laying out the mounting holes.
I put one louver in the front door and one on the back of the cabinet.

Install the Strain Relief Cord Connectors.
Wire the 14AWG cord to the GFCI plug.

Install the louver vents.
Put a bead of silicon around the louver for water proofing.
Make sure the vents are faced the correct direction.

To mount the USB fan use spacers and predrill holes for screws.
Make sure to use screws that are long enough to reach from the back of the fan into the cabinet. Find spacers that will fill the space between the fan and cabinet so the fan sits above the louver.
Don't let the blades of the fan touch the louver.

I used 1/2" spacers with 1" machine screws to mount the fan in place.

Mount the camera.
Put water proofing foam tape around the edge of the camera mount before attaching the camera to the cabinet. Or use silicon after mounting the camera to water proof around the camera mount.
