Push-Pull Operators — Contact Block Selection
And Assembly
The illustration to the right assists in the selection of
contact blocks. Symbols 1 and 2 show locations of
contact circuits after assembly of contact blocks and
adapter to the operator. The chart below shows the
effects of the push and pull operations on either NO
or NC contacts.
Grounding Of 10250T And E34 Components General
With any electrical component there is the possibility of a
loose wire, moisture, etc. causing a short circuit between
the component and ground. If the device is adequately
grounded, the condition causes the protective fuse or circuit
breaker to open and remove the potential. If not, an electri-
cal hazard may remain unnoticed.
Grounding Nibs — 10250T
The 10250T operator is designed to make direct metallic
contact to the rear of the panel (with no intervening spacer
washers to interfere with component-to-panel ground con-
tinuity). As a further aid in establishing an electrical ground,
the operator has four metal points (“grounding nibs”)
designed to penetrate most paints or other protective coat-
ings.
Penetration of these nibs is dependent upon the torque
applied to the mounting nut. Recommended torque is 5 ft-
lbs (6.8 Nm). More or less may be necessary to penetrate
the specific type and thickness of your panel coating. Test
for continuity to ground after installation. If a short circuit
to ground does occur, the fault should be corrected and the
device replaced.
Earth Ground Terminals — E34
These devices are supplied with an integral earth/ground
terminal. A 6-32 terminal screw will accommodate ring type
terminations for bonding to international specifications.
