APPENDIX C: RECOMMENDED TORQUE SETTINGS
12.1
SCOPE
This document details the recommended tightening torque settings for electrical and mechanical connections
to DELTA modules.
The recommended torque settings are applicable to high-tensile steel (Grade 8.8) fasteners fitted with a single
turn spring washer under the nut, and with the threads being zinc plated, passivated and unlubricated, over the
normal operating temperature of these components.
Specifically excluded are:
fasteners with any other material (e.g. brass);
fasteners with any other finish (e.g. raw steel, cadmium plated, lubrication of any sort);
slotted holes in either steel or copper.

TORQUE SETTINGS FOR ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The figures included in Table 12–1 are for electrical connections of copper conductor crimps to device
terminals and to all copperwork except busbars, for which figures are included in Table 12–2.
