3“Normal Operating” (general purpose - no intentional delay) fuses are UL class “K5” (up to and including 60 amp), and UL class “H” ( 65 amp and above).
4Conductor data in this section specifies conductor size (excluding flexible cord or cable) between the panelboard and the equipment per NEC Table 310.16. If a flexible cord or cable is used, minimum conductor size may increase. See NEC Table 400.5(A) for flexible cord and cable requirements.
4-13. Placing Jumper Links
! Disconnect and lockout/tag- out input power before installing or moving jumper links.
1
Tools Needed:
3/8 in
Check input voltage available at site.
1 Jumper Link Label
Check label − only one is on unit.
2 Jumper Link
Move jumper links to match input voltage, and label on unit.
Close and secure access door, or go on to Section
2
Do not overtighten jumper link nuts.
