Features/Benefits

* Used to install and remove the 127-8893 or 169-4290 Terminal Assembly in an EIS transformer group.

* Required to allow proper tightening of the terminal assembly. Tighten the terminal assembly to a torque of 2.70 ± 0.25 N·m (24.0 ± 2.2 lb in).

* Accurate tightening torque is essential to avoid damage to terminal components; necked-down diameter minimizes chance of over-torque.
