Enclosure Installation - Steel and Concrete Poles
(Figures 1, 2, & 3) (See Enclosure Installation - Wood Poles)
Important: Installation requires the use of a pole equipped
with mounting couplings and wireway . (Figure 1)
1. Remove peel strip from gasket supplied in hardware bag.
2. Apply gasket to the back of enclosure around the 2-1/2"
x 4-1/2" (63.5mm x 1 14.3mm) hole. (Figure 3)
Important: Clean the surface around the opening in the
back of enclosure to remove oil and dirt before applying
the gasket.
3. Install bolt (2) and lockwasher (3) in the top coupling.
(Figure 2) Leave 1" (25.4mm) of thread exposed.
4. Position lift bracket (4) over the bolt (2) and lockwasher
(3).
NOTE: The top of keyhole in bracket must contact the
bolt to support the 280 pound (127Kg) enclosure.
5. Align the wireway opening in the enclosure with the wireway opening in the pole. Do not damage gasket!
6. Install bolt, lockwasher and flatwasher through hole inside of enclosure and into the coupling in pole.
7. Tighten both bolts to a minimum of 40ft/lbs.
8. Seal all openings between pole and enclosure.

1. Install one 3/4" (19mm) diameter bolt (2) (by others) and
lockwasher (3) in pole at location for top enclosure support. (Figure 2) Leave 1" (25.4mm) of thread exposed.
2. Position the lift bracket (4) over bolt (2) and lockwasher
(3).
NOTE: The top of keyhole in bracket must contact the
bolt to support the 280 pound (127Kg) enclosure.
3. Install bolt, lockwasher and flatwasher through hole inside of enclosure and into the wood pole.
4. Tighten both bolts securely to a minimum of 40ft/lbs.
5. Seal all openings between pole and enclosure.
6. Drill wire way hole of desired size from inside of enclosure at center of hole “A” in electrical panel. (Figure 4)
NOTE: This wireway hole may be drilled in the bottom of
enclosure. Do not damage wires or components!
7. Attach conduit to enclosure with watertight fittings.
Wiring and Electrical Instructions
3 The enclosure voltage must match the supply voltage.
3 Standard wiring is single phase. Three phase requires
a “-T” on the catalog number. (Consult factory)
3 Total operating amperage is shown on the inside of door .
3 Enclosures are factory wired to operate as a separate
unit.
(Contact factory for wiring multiple enclosures in series)
3 Enclosure includes factory fusing of all branch circuits.
3 Enclosure includes internal electrical switching:
• Thermal Magnetic Breaker is standard for 208v, 220v
and 240v
• Load Break Switch is standard for 277v, 347v and 480v
• “-TB” indicates Thermal Magnetic Breaker for 277, 347v
and 480v .
