    Installation Mount the Mini Panel  1. Determine where the Mini Panel will be installed using the details outlined in Installation Environment on page 9  2. Remove the front cover from the Mini Panel.  • Surface mount: Loosen, but do not remove, the four screws securing the front cover. Slide the cover sideways, aligning the keyholes with screws, and then lift the cover off the enclosure.

  • Page 15 Sample Power Input and Relay Output Terminations The following are sample termination scenarios for Mini Panel installations. Use these scenarios only as a reference, and refer to your electrician and wiring plans for your specific installation requirements. Discrete Power for Each Relay Output In this typical installation scenario, power input would be provided from an upstream breaker panel, with one breaker for each relay plus one for the control power feed.

  • Page 17 Bridging Relays with Normal/Emergency Power and Discrete Fed Breakers In this installation scenario, a single Normal/Emergency input power connection (line, neutral, and ground) is bridged between the control input (L) and one or more relay inputs (IN1 and IN2, using THRU1 and THRU2). Additional relays can be discretely fed from circuit breakers that are fed by other panels (IN3 and IN4).

Insert the line (hot) wire into the terminal marked IN* (IN2, IN3, etc.) and torque the terminal to 1.76 N·m (1.3 foot-pounds).  d. When bridging relay outputs, insert a wire between the THRU* terminal and the next relay IN* terminal.
