2. Install the conduit nipple into the enclosure service entrance and AC load center via the knockout and

secure it in place using the appropriate threaded conduit locknuts.

ing Black (or Red) #2 AWG wire [b] to the right terminal (L2). If the wire at L2 is Black, place red
tape (or label) on it.
