Rating applies with fusing up to this amperage. Ratings are based on tests
performed with Mersen non-time delay current limiting fuses.
The DR products are manufactured and rated in
compliance with applicable UL and CSA standards.
The products ratings are indicated on the device labels.
Some DR, DR7 and DS7 devices are provided with
optional auxiliary contacts that make after and break
before the phase contacts. The ratings for auxiliary
contacts are shown in Table 2.

General Notes & Precautions
1. Self-tapping screws are provided for use with
some polymeric accessories. High torque may
be required to drive them in. Once they are
seated, care should be taken in order to avoid
over-tightening them against the plastic material.
2. Various handles and cord grip options may be used.
These instructions are based on handles provided
with integral multi-layer bushing cord grips.
3. Wire strip lengths are indicated in Table 4. Strip
lengths for cable sheathing will depend on the
specific application. When used with handles, the
cable sheathing should extend into the handle to
ensure secure cord gripping.

4. Wiring terminals are spring assisted to prevent

loosening due to wire strand settlement, vibration
and thermal cycling. NOTICE: They should not
be over-tightened. Appropriate tools and
tightening torques are indicated in Table 5.
5. NOTICE: MELTRIC threaded handles come with
tapered style threads. The use of fitting seal tape is
recommended to maintain watertightness of
all NPT fittings and joints.

as required. Insert the bushing into the strain relief, then
insert the assembly into the handle and loosely install the
compression nut. Insert the cable through the handle, the thin
black drawplate gasket and finger drawplate (if applicable)
and the color coded gasket. Strip the cable sheath to provide
a workable wire length, being mindful that the sheath must
extend into the handle to achieve a secure cord grip. Then
strip the individual wires to the lengths indicated in Table 4
and twist the strands of each conductor together.
Back out the terminal screws on the receptacle (or inlet) far
enough (but not completely) to allow the conductors to pass,
insert the conductors fully into their respective terminals and
tighten the terminal screws with the appropriate tool to the
torque indicated in Table 5.
Verify that the cable sheath extends beyond the strain relief
and into the handle. Assemble the receptacle (or inlet), the
color coded gasket, the finger drawplate, and the thin black
drawplate gasket to the handle with the four self-tapping
screws provided. Adjust the cable location so that it will
not be under tension inside the handle and tighten the
compression nut to secure the cable.
Assembly for Mounted Receptacles (or Inlets)
In applications where the receptacles (or inlets) are
mounted to wall boxes, panels or other equipment, optimal
operation is achieved when the device is installed with the
latch at the top.
