WARNING: Be extremely careful when working on a
CLOSED breaker. Do not reach into the mechanism
while adjusting the flux shifter.

Optional Test – The flux shifter may be tested by closing
the breaker and applying a 9 Vdc power source to the
flux shifter leads (the red wire is positive). The breaker
should trip.

Connecting the Trip Unit Wiring Harness

1. Join the four-pin connector on the trip unit harness to

the four-pin connector on the flux shifter.

2. Run the CT leads through the inside of the breaker

frame, as shown in Figure 26. Connect the harness
leads to the screw terminals on each CT. The black
wire (tap) connects to the left terminal and the white
wire (common) to the right terminal.

3. Use the wire ties provided to secure the harness

back against the frame. Tie the harness to each CT
assembly, as shown in Figure 26. Ensure that the
wiring will not interfere with any moving parts.
