Contactor Rating (column 2).
(2) The armature conductors are sized by multiplying the Rated Motor Armature Current (column 1) by 1.25 as provided for in NEC 430-22. The DC lug ratings are determined from NEC Table 310-16 for copper
conductors, insulation temperature rated at 75 °C (167 °F) at an ambient temperature of 30 °C (86 °F). If conditions are other than shown in NEC Table 310-16, then refer to applicable local codes.
(3) The dynamic braking conductors are sized as noted in footnote 2, but at half ampacity due to the short time duration of current flow in these conductors, and has been sized to satisfy NEMA Standard ICS
3-302.62 - Dynamic Braking. If the load inertia is lager than that of the motor, calculations must be made to determine correct conductor sizing and dynamic brake resistor wattage per NEAMA Standard
ICS 3-302.62.

1370 Lug Kits
Installation Follow these steps to properly install the lugs.
1. Verify that all power to the drive has been removed.
2. Carefully prepare the end of each of the UL listed or recognized and/or
CSA certified wires.
3. Install the appropriate lug on the end of each wire.
4. Crimp the lugs onto the wires according to the lug manufacturer's
instructions.
5. For each terminal, secure the lug to the appropriate terminal, using the
screw/bolt supplied with the contactor. Tighten the screw/bolt according
to the torque requirement listed in Table 2. See Figure 1 for lug and
terminal identification.
Table 2 - Contactor Terminal Torque Requirements
ATTENTION: To maintain the UL listing and CSA certifications on the 1370
contactor, you must use a crimp tool that is UL certified and follow the
instructions provided with the tool. Improper crimping can result in
overheating, fire, and/or personal injury.
ATTENTION: To guard against personal injury, be sure that fingers are
kept clear of the die nests whenever the crimp tool handles are brought
together. Most compression tools are designed with a full stroke
compelling mechanism, thus, making release of the handles difficult
after initial closure. Consult the manufacturer’s instructions for your
crimp tool prior to operation.
IMPORTANT When tightening the screws/bolts to the proper value, be sure that all
exposed electrical wires/lugs have the proper voltage spacing
according to UL 508 and/or CSA 22.2, No. 14.
