5.  If not already installed, mount terminals as shown in Figure 4. When using 

terminal (Catalog No.LTI UBW250), secure the terminal to the circuit breaker 
using a 1/8-inch socket wrench and torque to 6-8 lb.-ft (8-11 N.m). After 
mounting the circuit breaker and before installation of the conductors, the 
terminal mounting screw can be checked or retightened through the terminal 
when the conductor screw is removed. When using terminal (Catalog No. 
LTI UBW250), secure the terminal to the circuit breaker using screw and nut. 
Torque to 7-9 lb.-in (0.8-1.0 N.m).

WARNING

The voltages in energized equipment can cause death or severe personal 
injury. Before mounting the circuit breaker in an electrical system, make 
sure there is no voltage present where work is to be per formed. Special 
attention should be paid to reverse feed applications to ensure no voltage 
is present. 

NOTICE

Depending on the equipment configuration, the circuit breaker can be mounted using 
different styles of hardware. The following steps describe how to mount the circuit 
breaker using standard hardware. When special hardware is needed (for example, 
with the electrical operator), the instruction leaflet describing the accessory also 
describes the special mounting arrangements.

6.  To mount the circuit breaker, perform the following steps:

a. For individual surface mounting, drill mounting panel using the drilling 

plan shown in Figure 5. For panelboard mounting, only load end support 
mounting holes are required. For deadfront cover applications, cut out cover 
to correct escutcheon dimensions (see Figure 6).
