Step 3 – Installation
1. Loosen, but do not remove, the captive screws
holding the accessory cover on the breaker, as
shown in Figure 3. Remove the cover.
2. Each switch snaps into place in its designated
pocket, as shown in Figure 4(a). It can also be
easily removed with the aid of a small screwdriver,
as shown. The proper pockets for each device are
illustrated in Figure 5 for FB/FC breakers, in Figure
6 for FE breakers and in Figure 7 for FG beake
rs. Each breaker pocket is clearly marked with
the symbol for the device that it accepts.
3. If the accessory was not factory wired, connect the
wires to the lugs on the accessory, as shown in
Figure 4 (b). For screw-type terminals, the
recommended wire size is #24–16 AWG (0.4–2.5
mm
2
), with 600-V insulation, and a maximum
diameter of 0.100 in. (2.54 mm). Tighten the
terminals to 11 lb-in (1.2 Nm).
