FAQs

For installation, confirm overhead feed compatibility and front-mount access. The unit uses a four-jaw ring-type design with #6-250 MCM lugs for both line and load, and it supports a 1-pole, 3-wire configuration. Ensure mounting surface is durable steel or equivalent and that ANSI 61 paint is preserved during service. Verify UL Listed compliance prior to commissioning.
Yes. The 204 F is specified for overhead feed with front mounting, 200 A capacity, and ring-type four-jaw lugs. It is designed to integrate with overhead service conductors and large feeder lugs (#6-250 MCM), making it ideal for overhead service entrances in commercial and light-industrial settings.
The 204 F carries UL Listed certification, indicating compliance with applicable safety standards. It features ANSI 61 paint and steel construction for durability and electrical longevity. These certifications support safer installations and easier procurement within regulated environments.
The four-jaw, ring-type design provides a robust mechanical connection with low-resistance contact, improving reliability under startup and fluctuating loads. This design also facilitates secure lug engagement for #6-250 MCM conductors, contributing to safer, more consistent service connections in busy electrical rooms.
Maximize ROI by leveraging the front-mount, overhead-feed configuration for rapid installations, using the top knockout provisions for flexible conduit routing, and maintaining the ANSI 61 painted finish for durability. The UL Listed status reduces commissioning risk, and the 200 A rating supports longer-term capacity planning without frequent replacements.
