Power Distribution Connectors
The power distribution connectors (PDC) can be used for multiple load wire connections on one circuit
breaker. Use in place of standard distribution blocks to save space and time. Field installable kit
includes tin-plated aluminum lug, connectors, and required mounting hardware.
• For use on load end of circuit breaker only
• For use in UL 508 Industrial Control applications
• For use in UL 1995/CSA C22.2 No. 236 heating and cooling equipment
• For copper wire only
See Table 135 for the phase barriers for power distribution connectors.
