connection of service cables (or bus) and control circuit

wires. An experienced licensed electrician should install

the RC Switch.

Each ASCO 920 RC Switch has a ratings / identification

label defining load types and maximum voltage ratings.

Use the switch only within the limits shown on this label.

Do not exceed the values on the rating label.

Exceeding the rating can cause personal injury

or serious equipment damage.
