Information for enclosure sizes and ratings shown are standard GE designs for a typical ambient temperature of 40 Celsius. The housing is designed for a maximum
temperature rise of 40 Celsius and the conductors are designed for a maximum rise of 65 Celsius over a 40 Celsius ambient. Technical data for GE standard bar
bus configurations is presented for design and layout purposes only and is subject to change without prior notice.
