PREFERREDCUTOUT OVERVIEW
APPLICATION
Enclosures having the preferred cutout are sized for use with
up to 200A disconnect switches and up to 400A circuit breakers
unless otherwise specified. The preferred cutout accepts the
smaller operating handle whose mounting hole centers are 4.688
in. apart. Preferred cutouts are standard in mild steel wall-mount
enclosures, modular enclosures and some select large mild steel
enclosures. They are also present on all standard stainless steel
offerings. Mild steel operator adapter plates with brand specific
preferred cutouts are available for enclosures with a rectangular
universal cutout.
Preferred cutouts are designed to house the following:

These enclosures will NOT accept Square D Class 9422 bracket-
mounted disconnect devices, Class 9422TG1 or TG2 devices.
ORDERING
The disconnect switch, operating handle, and operating mechanism
must be ordered from disconnect equipment supplier. See
Technical Information in the Hoffman Specifier’s Guide for wire
bend space available when various manufacturers’ disconnect
switches are installed. Check the enclosure dimension drawings to
verify the chosen disconnect switch will fit in the enclosure.
