Abstract

A low voltage apparatus having line and load terminals at opposing ends which are interconnected by fixed and moveable contacts under control of a coil. Terminal protectors (30) are provided at the line and load sides. The terminal protectors (30) protect (when installed on the low voltage apparatus) the contacts and box terminals. The terminal protectors are received in corresponding channels, in the low voltage apparatus. The terminal protector (30) has an end portion (32) which has two opposite side portions (34,36) extending rearwardly therefrom with a base or plate (46) extending therebetween. The base (46) has openings (48,49,50,51) therein defining portions including removable portions (52,54). These removable portions (52,54) are tapered along the sides thereof. Prior to inserting a wire into a terminal of the low voltage apparatus one or more removable portions (52,54) of the terminal protector (30) may require removal depending upon the diameter of the wire being inserted. A portion (52,54) is removed by inserting a blade of a screwdriver (or the like) into an adjacent opening (49,50) and applying an appropriate force on that portion to break it away at the tapper sides.
