A.Service Equipment Rated Transfer Switch without Ground Fault Protection: Provides Service Equipment rating for an application that does not require ground fault protection.

B.Service Equipment Rated Transfer Switch with Ground Fault Protection: Provides Service Equipment rating for an applica- tion that requires ground fault protection.

41. Space Heater with Thermostat

Provides a space heater and adjustable thermostat. External con- trol power is not required.

C.Space Heater with Thermostat - 400 Watts: Provides a 400 Watt space heater with an adjustable thermostat.

42. Seismic Certification

Provides a Seismic Certified Transfer Switch with certificate for application that is Seismic Zone 4 under the California Building Code, the Uniform Building Code, and BOCA.

3.7 Enclosure

The rugged steel switch enclosure is supplied with four door hinges, regardless of enclosure size, to insure proper support of the door and door mounted devices. The hinges have removable hinge pins to facilitate door removal. The doors are supplied as standard with thumbscrew and padlock latches. Cable entry holes are the customer’s responsibility.

The door is used to mount a variety of lights, switches, and push buttons, depending upon the options required for a particular switch. All switch doors are supplied with a heavy duty plastic accessory panel in place, whether or not external devices are required. When lights, pushbuttons, or switches are required, they are normally mounted in the plastic door mounted panel.

Transfer switch enclosures and some internal steel mounting plates, such as the transformer panel mounting plate, go through

apre-treatment cleaning system prior to painting to insure a dura- ble finish. Should the enclosure become scratched and in need of touch up paint, use ANSI 61. All remaining steel is galvanized.

The standard switch enclosure is NEMA Type 1 for general indoor use (Table 4).
