Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Specifically engineered for a secure fit with INS100/160 switches
  • Essential for meeting safety and insulation standards
  • Lightweight yet durable construction
  • Easy to integrate into existing circuit breaker assemblies

Cons

  • Not compatible with switches outside the INS100/160 series
  • Requires careful alignment for proper seating
  • Limited to IP40 protection against solids only

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the 28958 terminal shield is straightforward but must be performed while the circuit is fully de-energized. Ensure the INS100 or INS160 switch is securely mounted before attempting to attach the covers. Align the shield with the designated slots on the switch housing and press firmly until it clicks into place. For maintenance, periodically inspect the covers for any cracks or degradation due to heat or environmental factors. Clean only with a dry, non-conductive cloth; avoid harsh solvents that could compromise the insulating properties of the plastic.
