2-4. If an optional terminal end cover is to be installed with the
circuit breaker (usually line end only), it must be positioned before
cable is connected to terminals.
DCAUTION
WHEN ALUMINUM CONDUCTORS ARE USED, THE APPLICATION OF
A SUITABLE JOINT COMPOUND IS RECOMMENDED TO REDUCE THE
POSSIBILITY OF TERMINAL OVERHEATING. TERMINAL OVERHEATING CAN
CAUSE NUISANCE TRIPPING AND DAMAGE TO THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
2-5. After mounting the circuit breaker, line and load terminals and
accessory leads should be connected. (See accessory schematic
diagram on side of circuit breaker.)
ote:N If terminal shield or interphase barriers are to be installed on the circuit
breaker, install them after the terminals are connected.

2-6. If required, install terminal shield on circuit breaker cover with
mounting screws provided.
2-7. If required, install an interphase barrier by sliding barrier into
dovetail grooves between terminals.
2-8. After the circuit breaker is installed, check all mounting hard-
ware and terminal connecting hardware for correct torque loading.
Torque values for line/load terminals are given in Tables 1, 2, and 3
and on the circuit breaker nameplate.
