Code plates are provided to prevent insertion of 
1200/2000 amp device into 3000 amp compartment and 
vice-versa. Type VCP-W manual grounding and test 
devices are also available with either the upper or the 
lower terminals only. Devices of the same rating with 
only the upper terminals or with only the lower terminals 
are coded to make them non-interchangeable by the 
addition of an overlay code plate 8243A53H01 in the
