2. Mount the circuit breaker cover supports. Mount the
breaker cover supports supplied in the kit to the
circuit breaker module or mounting plate, according
to the instructions supplied with the module or
mounting plate.
To install the cover support for single-branch SF and
TF breakers, first remove the breaker mounting
bracket by prying back the plastic spring clip on the
module. Slide the cover support on and snap the
breaker mounting bracket back into the module.
Fasten the cover support to the module, as shown in
Figure 1.

the steel space filler and two #10 x
/8" screws,
tightened to 25 in-lb, as shown in Figure 3.
For TEB, TED, THED, TQD, THQD, and TEL
breakers, use the plastic space fillers. Install the filler
from the underside of the breaker cover. Engage the
slotted end of the space filler with the inside edge of
the opening in the breaker cover. Secure the other
end in place with a #10 x

/8" screw, tightened to 15
in-lb, as shown in Figure 4.
5. Install the assembled breaker cover over the flexible
prongs on the filler supports, as shown in Figures 5
and 6.

These instructions do not cover all details or variations in
e
ment nor do they provide for every possible contingency that
ma
be met in connection with installation, operation, or
maintenance. Should further information be desired or should
articular problems arise that are not covered sufficiently for the
