WARNINGS
• TO AVOID FIRE SHOCK, OR DEATH, TURN OFF POWER AT CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE,
TEST THAT POWER IS OFF BEFORE SERVICING OR WIRING and ensure connections are
made in the same sequence as existing device connections.
• These devices conform to IEC standard 60309-1 and 60309-2. The construction is such that
each device cannot be mated with another IEC device of different specifications (i.e., voltage,
amperage or system rating). For safety purposes, do not use a non-IEC device with these pin
and sleeve devices. The specifications for non-IEC devices are established by the individual
manufacturers, and may not meet IEC standards. IMPROPER MATING OF DEVICES MAY
CAUSE FIRE, SHOCK OR DEATH.
CAUTIONS
• Examine devices periodically for any foreign matter that may contaminate the contacts or the insulation material
separating the contacts. Contamination decreases the device’s insulation properties. This increases the
potential for arcing and possibly decreases the product’s life and may cause fire and/or shock hazard. The
frequency of inspection depends upon the degree of contamination.
• If you are unsure about any part of these instructions, consult an electrician.
• To be installed and/or used in accordance with electrical codes and regulations (Including NEC/CEC, as applicable).
• Use this device only with copper or copper clad wire.
