• Compatibility: Eaton NZM2 series 3-pole circuit breakers
• Function: Touch protection for live terminals
• Application: Industrial and commercial electrical distribution

How to use

Installation involves snapping the touch protection cover onto the terminal area of the 3-pole circuit breaker. Ensure the power is disconnected before attempting installation to maintain safety. Once aligned with the terminal housing, the cover should click into place, providing a secure barrier over the live parts. Verify that the cover is firmly seated and does not obstruct any cable connections or operational levers.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your circuit breaker is an Eaton NZM2 3-pole model.
• Check if your installation requires IP2X compliance for safety audits.
• Ensure there is sufficient clearance in the panel for the added depth of the cover.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the touch protection cover during routine maintenance to ensure it remains securely attached and free from physical damage. If the cover becomes cracked or loose, it should be replaced immediately to maintain the required safety standards.
