WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Unscrew cover to expose the switching element for wiring
or replacement. To aid in cover removal, a screwdriver or
bar may be used on the wrenching lugs. Use up to size
#12 AWG solid or stranded wire to connect to the pres-
sure type connector terminals. Stripped wire ends or any
spade and ring connector that will fit the terminals may be
used. Spades may be up to 7,9 mm [0.312 in] wide, rings
up to 7,9 mm [0.312 in] diameter. With spade or ring type
connections preinsulated connectors or heat-shrinkable
tubing should be used to provide insulation between ter-
minals. Conduit size, electrical ratings and circuit diagram
are shown on the nameplate. Wire the double pole units by
connecting lead wires to the terminals nearest the conduit
opening first. An internal grounding screw is located on the
right side; an external grounding screw is located on the
upper left side. Torque all terminal screws and grounding
screws to 1 Nm to 1,8 Nm [9 in-lb to 16 in-lb]. Reassemble
cover and torque to 10 Nm [90 in-lb].
2.
Put cover locking clamp on circular cover and tighten the
flat head cross recessed screw to 1,5 Nm to 1,8 Nm [13.27
in-lb to 16 in-lb]. (See Figures 9 and 10)
3.
The internal grounding terminal must be used for the
equipment grounding connection, and the external termi-
nal is for supplementary bonding connection where local
codes or authorities permit or require such connections.
