ENGLISH
3. Install the wire terminal end of the circuit breaker to the mounting rail and push inward until
the plug-on jaw fully engages the bus bar connector. Keep the bottom of the circuit breaker
case against the mounting rail.
4. Remove the wire insulation from the branch wire as required. Install the branch wire into the
load terminal of the branch circuit breaker.
5. Torque each branch circuit breaker connection to the value specified on the circuit breaker.
6. Torque each neutral and ground connection to the value specified on the load center circuit
breaker.
Removal
1. Turn OFF (O) the circuit breaker. Remove the wires.
2. To disconnect the plug-on jaw from the connector and mounting rail, pull the circuit breaker
outward until it disengages from the mounting rail. See Figure 4 or Figure 5 depending on the
circuit breaker type.
Tandem Branch Circuit Breakers—Installation
Install QOT and HOMT tandem-type circuit breakers only in single-phase load centers.
Refer to the wiring diagram on the load center for the installation location.
1. Determine the wiring or conduit requirements for the branch circuit.
2. Turn OFF (O) the circuit breaker.
3. Hold the tandem circuit breaker at 30°–45° angle.
4. Install the wire terminal end of the circuit breaker into the mounting rail.
5. Rotate the circuit breaker inward until the plug-on jaw fully engages the bus bar connector.
Keep the bottom of the circuit breaker case against the mounting rail.
6. Remove the wire insulation from the branch wire as required. Install the branch wire into the
load terminal of the branch circuit breaker.
7. Torque each branch circuit breaker connection to the value specified on the circuit breaker.
8. Torque each neutral and ground connection to the value specified on the load center wiring
diagram attached to the enclosure.
Removal
1. Turn OFF (O) the circuit breaker.
2. To disconnect the plug-on jaw from the connector, pull the circuit breaker outward until it
disengages from the mounting rail. See Figure 6 or Figure 7, depending on the circuit
breaker type.
