Use insulated bars/ perform specific type tests on the installation.
5.1.1 Shapes of the terminals

Note
The drawings provide a schematic illustration of the type of terminal. The exact shape of the terminals is given in the chapter entitled “Overall
dimensions". The terminals installed on the upper and lower parts (input and output) can be different from each other.

5.1.2. Examples of connection busbar layouts depending on the types of terminals
The busbars allow connections to be made between the terminals of the circuit-breaker and the busbars of the switchboard. They must be ac-
curately sized by the switchboard design engineer.
This section illustrates examples of possible constructions, depending on the shape and size of the circuit-breaker terminals.
It is normally advisable to use the entire contact surface of the terminal, thus the width of the busbar should be the same as that of the terminal.
Different capacities can be obtained for the connections by adjusting the thickness and number of busbars in parallel. In certain cases, reductions
in the width of the connection in relation to that of the terminal can be allowed, as shown in the examples below.

4.2 Installation of the flange on the compartment door (Fig. 8)
– Drill the holes in the compartment door indicated in the section entitled “Overall dimensions”.
– Apply the flange (1) to the front of the compartment door and fix it from the inside with the self-tapping screws (2).
