Figure 56. Typical cassette-mounted secondary wiring
Fixed type circuit breakers: There are two secondary
connection options:
1. Without terminal block: If a terminal block for customer use
is not required, the circuit breaker is supplied with the plug-in
connector (male and female) just described in the two previous
paragraphs. The plug-in connectors are joined and attached to
the top portion of the circuit breaker. The customer can plug
secondary wiring with crimp-on connectors into the back of the
plug-in connector; subsequently the connections to the circuit
breaker can be quickly joined or separated as required.
2. With terminal block: For those customers preferring to wire to a
terminal block, terminal blocks with finger-proof hinged covers are
added to the secondary configuration just described for a fixed
circuit breaker “without a terminal block.” The terminal blocks are
wired to the plug-in connectors and also permanently attached
to the upper rear portion of the circuit breaker (Figure 16 and
Figure 17).
A standard tool is available from the plug-in connector manufacturer
(AMP) to facilitate the removal of secondary wiring from a plug-in
connector, or contact Eaton for assistance (Figure 57). The connector
halves must be separated to use this tool.
