Figure 8. Rail (Left End Orientation)

Installing Insulators and Conductors

1. If the conductors are installed in the rail at the factory, verify that the reset conductor lengths are correct

for the proper BRICK configuration (see following table). If correct, skip to step 4.

2. Determine insulator (figure 9) and conductor (figures 10 and 11) lengths from the following table:

and GND) and

Horizontal

(Number of BRICKs

1/2-inch (130 mm)
shorter than insulator

Starting =

18.25 in. (4635 mm)

Interior =

17.25 in. (4380 mm)

Ending =

8.25 in. (2095 mm)

Ending =

8.00 in. (2030 mm)

3. Cut to proper length.
4. Press the conductor insulator into grooves 1, 3, 4 and 5 (see figure 9). The left edge of the rail is deter-

mined by the orientation of the Locking Flange—see figure 8.
