Residential loadcenter and circuit breakers
Installation tips
CH & BR plug-on neutral loadcenters and circuit breakers
Drywall offsets tabs
For flush mount applications,
•
utilize the drywall offsets at
the top and bottom on both
sides of the loadcenter.
Push the tabs out 90 degrees
•
so that they are perpendicular
to the side of the loadcenter.
When installing the loadcenter
•
between studs, the tabs help
provide the proper drywall
offset.
Keyhole hanging feature
Take advantage of the
•
keyhole hanging feature for
an easy and hassle free cover
installation.
Place the top two cover
•
screws in the loadcenter
case holes. Then, align the
top two cover keyholes with
the top two cover screws to
easily hang the cover.
The cover keyhole hanging
•
feature also works for
bottom feed applications.
Torque rating
The torque rating information
•
can be found on the loadcen-
ter PUB. Refer to the chart
on the PUB for the specific
torque value required. After
referencing the chart, use a
torque wrench to torque to
the specified value.
Green bonding screw
The green bonding screw
•
comes unthreaded.
When required to bond the
•
ground and neutral, thread the
green bonding screw into case
with 40 in-lbs of torque.
For applications when the
•
ground and neutral should
not be bonded, it is recom-
mended that the green screw
is removed entirely and
discarded.
Main breaker loadcenters
and terminal insulators
Install terminal insulators to
•
the service entry cable and
line-side lugs of the main
breaker device.
All 225A and smaller main
•
breaker loadcenters ship from
the factory with a terminal
insulator kit.
The terminal insulator kit will
•
need to be purchased sepa-
rately for main breaker load-
centers greater than 225A.
Ordering a convertible
loadcenter
To order a convertible loadcen-
•
ter, select a loadcenter catalog
number with "N" or "E" as
the main device designation.
"N" indicates convertible load-
•
center with no main device
installed at factory.
"E" indicates convertible
•
loadcenter with main lugs
installed.
