Step 1, Unpack and inspect
Unpack the breaker and inspect it for any shipping damage. Ensure the breaker has the proper ampere, voltage and interrupting ratings for the application. Next, using the instructions supplied with the rating plug, install the plug into the main breaker body. Available rating plugs along with catalog numbers are listed in Table 2 and shown in Figure1, (see color-coding). Now install the accessories (Step 9) and terminal lugs (Step 3) using supplied installation instructions. Check all accessories for proper voltage ratings, installation, wiring routing and operation. Attach appropriate labels to side of the breaker if internal accessories have been installed.
Step 2, Installation
