As described above, the present invention includes a plate frame mounted in an embedding hole formed in a mounting surface such as a wall surface,
An inner frame detachably attached to the opening formed in the plate frame, a frame-shaped decorative plate attached to the plate frame so as to close the outer peripheral portion of the plate frame, and an upper surface of a wiring device attached to the inner frame It is equipped with a panel cover that is exposed to the inside of the decorative plate and is attached to the decorative plate, and a metal fire-resistant panel that is disposed inside the space formed by the plate frame, the decorative plate and the panel cover in the case of a fire-resistant structure. Multiple types of middle frames to which various embedded wiring devices with different structures can be attached, respectively, can be replaced, and screw holes are formed in the plate frame to fix them by fixing them to the mounting surface. A material is sandwiched between the rear surface and the back surface to secure the plate frame to the mounting surface, and the outer periphery of the plate frame and the outer periphery of the decorative plate are overlapped with each other with a gap therebetween. The middle frame corresponding to the mounting part of the wiring equipment of the conventional mounting frame is separated from the plate frame corresponding to the mounting part to the mounting surface such as the wall surface of the conventional mounting frame, and the middle frame depends on the type of wiring equipment. The plate frame can be used in common by simply replacing the middle frame, and wiring devices having different attachment / detachment structures can be attached by using common members as much as possible. Further, since the metal fireproof panel is disposed inside the space formed by the plate frame, the decorative plate and the panel cover, a fireproof structure can be obtained. Further, the plate frame is provided with a screw hole for screwing and fixing the plate frame to the mounting surface, and the plate frame is provided with a clamping portion for clamping the structural member of the mounting surface between the plate surface and the rear surface. Therefore, the mounting device can be mounted on the mounting surface by the screwing type and the sandwiching type. Furthermore, since the outer periphery of the plate frame and the outer periphery of the decorative plate are overlapped with each other and are overlapped with each other, even when the plate frame is warped in the mounting state of the plate frame on the mounting surface, the above-mentioned gap is formed. At the outer peripheral portion where the superposition is caused, the warp can be absorbed and it can be attached with a good appearance.
