Table 1: List of various breaker frame sizes with their respective
conversion kits.
800A Stationary Breaker
The 800A Power Break  II design is similar in dimension to
the 800A Power Break  I breaker. The only modification
required is the panel cutout. Begin process by removing
existing breaker from equipment.
Panel Cutout
A 14” x 10” cutout is required for the Power Break II
breaker to fit. Figure 1 shows the new front panel cutout
using the existing cutout as reference (dashed line in
Figure 1). Once cutout is complete, mount the standard
trim plate using #8-32 screws and torque to 5 in-lbs.

Breaker Installation
Ensure that all accessory connections are secure. Line up
mounting holes with enclosure. Place the bolts and tighten
to 300 in-lbs.
1600–2000A Stationary Breaker
In order to make the conversion to a 1600A or 2000A
Power Break
 II breaker, four modifications are required.
Begin process by removing existing breaker from
equipment.
Panel Cutout
Figure 2 shows the 14” x 10” cutout required using the
existing cutout as reference (dashed). Once cutout is
complete, mount the standard trim plate using #8-32
screws and torque to 5 in-lbs.
