SERIES 300 Quick Connect Power Panel

 

381333-476 A 

 

Prior to Installation: Site Preparation 

Prepare installation site according to local codes. 

The ASCO SERIES 300 Quick Connect Power Panels are to be 
set on an exterior pad  and secured to a building or secured to 
a pad using 3/8“ fasteners (See Figure 1). 

The surface where the ASCO SERIES 300 Quick Connect 
Power Panel is to be secured must be capable of supporting 
the weight of the cabinet as  well as the cable attached to it. 

The following should be taken into consideration when locating 
the ASCO SERIES 300 Quick Connect Power Panel: 

The ASCO SERIES 300 Quick Connect Power Panel is 
designed for exterior  operation ONLY 

Identify and meet local codes and local Authority Having 
Jurisdiction (AHJ) 

To prevent carbon monoxide poisoning from improperly 
ventilated generator emissions, the Power Panel must be 
mounted outdoors only. The mounting location is to be 
carefully selected to  allow convenient connection to a 
generator and located a suitable  distance away from any 
building openings or HVAC inlets. 

Proper clearance must be allowed in front of the ASCO 
SERIES 300 Quick Connect Power Panel to allow for 
opening of access doors and attachment of externally 
connected cables. This distance should be no less than six 
(6) feet from the face of the panel. 

While lock protection is provided, access by unauthorized 
personnel and vandals should be taken into consideration 
when locating this device. 

Shipment: Unpacking and  Inspection 

 

Be careful in the use of sharp object when cutting 
packaging as damage to the outer enclosure may result. 

Perform a visual inspection to ensure the door and all hasps 
are in functioning condition and that the panel integrity is intact. 

 

Secure with 3/8” fastener
