secondary disconnects. The cassette is a separate assembly from the retrofill breaker; first, the cassette is to be
wired and then installed in the switchgear, then followed by the breaker being racked into the cassette.
The wiring harness for the secondary disconnects, located on the AKD-5/6 retrofill cassette, has 21 wire connections
(grouped in three blocks (A, B, C)) for 75/100, with seven wire connections for each block). Each wire is clearly labeled,
or identified, with wire markers or tags. Each wire on the 21-wire harness is connected to a bullet. Each bullet, when
the cassette is racked in, engages with its respective points in the switchgear. The wires for Block A are identified as
A1, A2,...A7. Block B wiring is likewise labeled as B1, B2, B3,....B7. Block C contains C1, C2,....C7. The end, opposite of the
