Caution Follow the grounding procedure instructions, and use a UL-listed lug (included with the switch) for
number-6 AWG wire and 10-32 ground-lug screws.
Note You can use the grounding lug to attach a wrist strap for ESD protection during servicing.
Follow these steps to install a dual-hole lug on the switch. Be sure to follow any grounding requirements
at your site.
Step 1 Use a Phillips screwdriver or a ratcheting torque screwdriver with a Phillips head to remove the ground
screw from the cable side of the switch. You need the screw in Step 4.
Step 2 Strip the 6-gauge ground wire to 0.5 inch (12.7 mm) ± 0.02 inch (0.5 mm). See Figure 3-3. Stripping
more than the recommended amount of wire can leave exposed wire from the connector.
