The VT comes supplied with the elements necessary for mounting it within
the host container and fixing the sealing gasket giving the declared level of
IP protection.
There are three kinds of terminal: those with the gasket already in place and
the mounting within the container being secured by means of nuts, and
those where the gasket is to be fitted in the installation phase and the means
of securing are hooks and those with seal already attached which are fixed
to the container using external support.
Using nuts The figure below shows the front and back views of a VT inserted in a con-
tainer. Under the figure is to be found the sequence of operations to be car-
ried out to ensure that the fixing is correct.
After preparing the container that will host the VT:
• Insert the VT in the cut-out
• Hold the VT against the wall
• Insert first the washer then the nut into the fastener
• Tighten the nuts till the gasket has a firm grip (see also Page 30-10)
