1.  Verify utility power is OFF. Tag and lock utility power switch.

2.  Remove the 1/2" EMT knockout (7/8" dia.) 

and the 3/4" EMT knockout (1 1/8" dia.), 
located in the center bottom of the enclosure. 
For alternate installation, remove knockouts 
from the right side, left side, or back left of the 
enclosure as needed.

3.  Install the provided 1/2" strain relief fi tting, or 

user-supplied 1/2" Electrical Metallic Tubing 
(EMT), in the front 1/2" knockout. Route the 
line cord, or #18AWG wire for line, neutral, 
and ground, between the enclosure and utility power connection. When installing the 
strain relief fi tting, run the line cord or AC wiring through the outer nut before installing the 
rest of the fi tting. See Fig. 4-1.

4. 

For 120V applications:

 connect the line and neutral wires to the AC input block. Torque 

to 4.5 in-lbs (.5 N m).

 

For 240V applications:

 connect L1 and L2 wires to the AC input block. Torque to 4.5  

in-lbs (.5 N m).

5.  Connect the ground wire (green) to the #10 ground stud. Torque to 36 in-lbs (4.1 N m).

6.  Tighten the strain relief fi tting using Channellock pliers and a 1" wrench.

7.  For 120V applications, remove the protective label on the input voltage select switch, and 

move the switch to the 120V position. See Fig. 4-2.
