INTRODUCTION
The JD and LD Frame circuit breaker line
includes types SJD6-B, SHJD6-B,
SCJD6-B, SLD6-B, SHLD6-B, and
SCLD6-B circuit breaker types. These circuit breakers are
listed under UL489 and rated for operating voltages up to
600 VAC, 50/60 Hz.
INSTALLATION
The JD and LD Frame circuit breakers (See Fig. 1) are for
use in individual enclosures, panelboards, or other
approved equipment. The installation procedure consists
of inspecting, attaching required accessories, mounting
the circuit breaker and connecting and torquing the line
and load wire connectors. Mounting hardware and
unmounted wire connectors (where required) are available
as separate catalog items.
CIRCUIT BREAKER PREPARATION
A. Before installing or servicing the breaker, turn off and
lock out all power to prevent incidental or accidental
contact.
B. Make sure that the device is suitable for the installation
by comparing nameplate ratings with system
requirements. Inspect the circuit breaker for
completeness and check for any damage before
mounting.
NOTE: Accessory installation should be completed
before the circuit breaker is mounted and connected.
(See installation instructions supplied with the
accessory before proceeding.)
C. Depress the red trip button (See Fig 4) or turn the
breaker off before installation.
D. To mount the circuit breaker, perform the following
steps:
1. For enclosures, panelboards and switchboards
manufactured by Siemens Industry, Inc., follow the
instructions provided with the equipment.
2. For applications where mounting is on a flat
surface of the equipment, drill and tap mounting
bolt holes as shown in Fig. 2. For escutcheon cut
out refer to Fig. 3.
3. Ensure that any internal accessory terminals can
be properly connected with the circuit breaker in
the mounted position.
4. Position the circuit breaker in the mounting
location, install the mounting hardware and tighten
securely.

The circuit breaker handle has three indicating positions,
two of which are molded into the handle to indicate ON
and OFF. The third position indicates a TRIP position and
is between the ON and OFF positions. (See Fig. 4)
