NOTE: Order Kit RAK4002CW to enable a quick disconnect inside the junction box.

3ATTACH CONDUIT

1Use the round knockout at the bottom of the junction box to attach conduit coming from the branch circuit. Remove the knockout, attach the

conduit and bring wires into the junction box. Leave 6″ of wire free at the end of the conduit to allow connections to be made.

2If a fuse and fuseholder are to be used, the knockout at the top of the box is for mounting

a Buss Fuseholder. Be sure the fuse and fuseholder are of the same rating as the branch circuit.

Leadwires at the fuse can be either soldered in place or attached using UL-listed 1/4″ female (receptacle) crimp connectors. Follow local codes.

4REINSTALL JUNCTION BOX

Reinstall the junction box by engaging the left tabs on the lower right face of the unit, aligning the screw holes at the top and bottom and driving the two screws until secure. Be sure that all wire leads are inside the box and not pinched between the box and the unit. The green insulated ground wire from the unit MUST be connected to the branch circuit ground wire.

Make all wire connections by using appropriate UL-listed electrical connectors and techniques (black to black, white to white and green to green).
