Introduction
Homeline
TM
Combination Service Entrance Devices are designed to restrict
the installation of more overcurrent devices than that number for which it was
designed. Be advised that the plug-on connection arrangement for HOMT
circuit breakers is different from HOM circuit breakers.
Double Row Bus Construction
Tandem circuit breaker type HOMT may be installed in combination service
entrance devices where the bus bar connector has a slot at the centerline of
the desired pole space. See Figure 1.
