CAUTION
To avoid fire hazard or accelerated degradation of insulation, use
copper conductors only with an insulation rating of 75º C min. Size
conductors for 60º C ampacity.
5. Pull all branch circuit and ground conductors into enclosure,
providing sufficient length to connect to enclosed switch terminals.
6. Make electrical connections utilizing the wiring pattern established
for your system. Connect branch circuit conductors to enclosed
switch screw terminals with corresponding terminals connected
through same conductors attached to receptacle contacts. Connect
green grounding conductor to receptacle grounding screw.
Note: Avoid conductors of excessive length which may crowd the switch
contacts and restrict proper switch operation.

CAUTION
Receptacle housing must be securely attached into a permanently
grounded conduit system in accordance with Article 250 of the
National Electrical Code.
7. Re-thread cover into housing. Tighten cover until cover flange
contacts body face. Back off slightly to align access hole in lower
edge cover with cover locking screw.
8. Turn cover locking screw counterclockwise (outward). This will lock
cover in place and release the receptacle interior so that the switch
can be operated.
9. Test mechanically by aligning and inserting mating plug fully.
Rotate plug clockwise as indicated on receptacle plate. Rotate
counterclockwise and withdraw plug.
Note: Lockout holes are aligned when in the “OFF” position.
10. Unused conduit entries must have plugs installed.
WARNING
Do not connect to power until the following electrical tests have
been performed:
• Make continuity check of wiring to verify correct phasing and
grounding connections.
• Check insulation resistance to be sure system does
not have any short circuits or unwanted grounds.
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock always disconnect primary power source
before opening enclosure for inspection or service.

MAINTENANCE
Electrical and mechanical inspection of all components must be
performed on a regular schedule determined by the environment and
frequency of use. It is recommended that inspection be performed a
minimum of once a year.
WARNING
1. Inspect switch wire terminals for tightness. Discoloration due to
excessive heat is an indicator of a possible problem and should be
thoroughly investigated and repaired as necessary.
2. Check grounding and bonding for correct installation and secure
connection.
3. Clean exterior surfaces making sure nameplates remain legible.
4. Check tightness of all screws before using.
5. Inspect housings and replace complete unit for those which are
broken.
6. Check contacts for signs of arcing or burning. Discontinue use and
replace complete unit if arcing is evident.
In addition to these required maintenance procedures, we recommend
an Electrical Preventative Maintenance program as described in the
National Fire Protection Association Bulletin NFPA No. 70B.

Check for dirt, grit, or other foreign material on the threads. If any
such material settles on these threads, clean them with kerosene
or Stoddard solvent, then re-lubricate with Crouse-Hinds Type STL
thread lubricant. To avoid the possibilities of an explosion, oxidation
and corrosion, do not use gasoline or similar solvents.
If any parts of the plug, receptacle or connectors appear to be
missing, broken or show signs of damage, DISCONTINUE USE
IMMEDIATELY. Replace with the proper replacement part(s) before
continuing service.
