Before beginning installation of the C OMPÄSSO ™ Standard Ceiling System, check the enclosed bill of materials to
ensure that all parts are present and undamaged. Read all installation instructions first and familiarize yourself
with the system’s components. This is extremely important because parts will become permanently damaged if
they are installed incorrectly! To help with identification, all parts are poly-bagged. This is to be used with IC464

Temporary splices are made in the field by cutting permanent
splice plates in half.

The permanent splice is 6" long and is used only after the grid is
cut and attached to a C

very difficult to remove once installed.
