ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for aiding the routing of conductors into an electrical panel distribution box and connecting the conductors to corresponding circuit breaker terminals of an electrical distribution panel therein. The apparatus includes a terminal jig having an upper surface, an array of number-coded holes extending through the first plate, a plurality of odd-number indicia on the upper surface adjacent to the holes, respectively, the holes each having a diameter greater than an outside diameter of the conductors, and a clamp for attaching the first plate to the distribution panel housing. A plurality of the number-coded conductors of the first group are pulled through a conduit into an interior of a distribution panel housing. The terminal jig is attached by the clamp to a lower front lip of the housing. The free ends of the conductors are inserted through correspondingly numbered holes in the terminal jig. The electrical power distribution panel is installed in the distribution panel housing. The conductors are withdrawn, one at a time, from the terminal jig and are electrically connected to correspondingly numbered terminals of circuit breakers of the electrical power distribution panel.
