ABSTRACT:
A three phase (3.phi.) sub feed lug accessory is presented. In an exemplary embodiment the 3.phi. sub feed lug accessory comprises a 3.phi. sub feed lug block and a tie down bracket. The 3.phi. sub feed lug block includes a housing having a first end and a second opposing end. At the first end, at least one and preferably a plurality of openings are formed in the housing, wherein each opening has an interlocking slot extending from the opening. The openings are intended to receive corresponding first tabs extending from one side of a load center and once the first tabs are received, they are releasably interlocked within the interlocking slots of the housing. At the second end of the housing, a shoulder is formed, wherein the shoulder defines a planar platform for receiving a first end of the tie down bracket. Similarly, the tie down bracket includes interlocking slots at a second end which are designed to interlockingly secure the second end of the bracket to second tabs of the load center, with the first end being secured to the 3.phi. sub feed lug block. The interlocking of the 3.phi. sub feed lug block and bracket results in the 3.phi. sub feed lug block being electrically connected to load center bus bars across the load center itself.
