Quality
All EntelliGuard R circuit breakers have been designed and manufactured to ANSI standards. The design
was based on the original requirements from the Legacy Switchgear and Breaker. The product is
assembledd in the Burlington, Iowa factory; and is inspected using the same master gauges used on the
legacy AK, AKR breakers to confirm electrical and mechanical performance, including
rejections-features.
Information Label
On the side wall of each circuit breaker there is a detailed factory-assembled, side label that details all
features included on both the circuit breaker and on the trip unit.
Product and Catalog Serial Numbers
Product and catalog serial numbers should be kept handy when communicating about the circuit
breaker. Each circuit breaker has a unique serial number located on the left side (viewed from front) of
the front fascia.
