Procurement Notes

Verify the specific voltage and wire configuration requirements against the official datasheet before procurement. Confirm that the 225A main and 175A branch ratings align with the intended load calculations. Ensure the installation environment meets the Type 1 indoor protection standards specified by the manufacturer.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a Type 1 indoor enclosure is required for splitting feeders in a three-wire system. Consider the 16x16x5 inch footprint for space constraints. Verify compatibility with existing busbar or terminal block setups if modifications are needed beyond the pre-installed components.
