Remove surface oxides from cables by
cleaning with a wire brush. Verify that all
connections are correct places before
tightening the terminals. All connections
must be tightened to the proper torque
values as shown in Table 7.1.
Warning
Torquing srew-type terminal or compression
lugs with the improper tool and/or to a torque
value exceeding the defined parameters may
result in damage to the switch.
Danger
Hazardous voltage may be present. Only an au-
thorised electrician may perform the electri-
cal installation and maintenance of OX_ auto-
matic transfer switches. Do not attempt any
installation or maintenance actions when By-
pass-Isolation automatic transfer switch is
connected to the electrical mains. Before
starting work, make sure that the switch is
de-energised.

The cable lug must be pushed into the oval
hole of the terminal as close as possible to the
