Install Interior
Install interior using mounting holes drilled and
tapped in previous steps using supplied 10-32
hardware.
Fig. E
Verify Interior depth adjustment - Using a non-
conducting, insulated straight edge, verify dimension
from the front surface of the dead-front cover
mounting bracket. This should not be less than
11/16” (0.6875”). See Fig. E. If adjustments are
required, remove interior and readjust depth as per
previous steps.
Installation of Incoming
Panelboard Connections
Main incoming connections (mains, neutral and
ground).
Note:
As a minimum, all panelboard connections
are rated for use with 75°C or higher rated
conductors. When wire is used with temperature
ratings above 75°C, it shall be sized based on the
ampacity of wire rated 75°C.
Wire/Cabling
Mechanical setscrew lugs are typically supplied for
incoming cable connection.
Using appropriate tools, the installer must strip the
conductor insulation sufficiently to fill the entire
barrel of the connector with bare, non-insulated
conductor.
Conductor must be stripped without damage to the
conductor strands. Bare strands should be of equal
length (flush) on the end cut. Do not strip off more
insulation than needed. Exposure of bare conductor
outside lug can compromise clearances. The
connector and conductor should be free of all
foreign debris.
Never clip cable/wire strands in order to fit within
connectors. If cable/wire does not match the rating
of the connector, contact the manufacturer.
Use an antioxidant compound, if required. Insert
bare conductor into lug so the bare conductor fills
the full length of the lug body. Tighten lug, then
torque to levels indicated on the panelboard label.
If compression lugs are utilized and supplied with
the panelboard, the lugs will be mounted on the
incoming lug pad. Remove lugs from the pad. Use
an antioxidant compound, if required. Use a
crimping tool approved for that specific lug
manufacturer and lug size.
Follow instructions provided by the manufacturer of
the crimp tool. Once the lug is affixed to the
conductor, re-install the lug on the lug pad utilizing
the existing hardware. Torque hardware using
information provided in Appendix -
Table 2
for
torque values.
To ensure retrofit interior mounting pan is sufficiently
bonded to ground, a minimum of 1 existing mounting
stud should be used to mount the chassis. If this is
not feasible, install the supplied bonding wire and
lug to assembly between one of the chassis ground
bars to the enclosure. You may be required to drill
and tap a #10-32 hole. Use hardware supplied with
interior.

Trim Installation
Install dead-front cover to the rear of trim with
supplied #10-32 Keps nuts. See Fig. F. Verify door
opens in desired direction
Fig. F
Install trim and dead-front cover as one assembly
using qty 4 ¼-20 X 0.75” screws.
Fig. G
Install directory cardholder, and Latch. Trim number
strip to the appropriate length and install on
Deadfront cover.
