SPEAR single-phase reclosers can be specified with eyebolt
terminals (400 A , 630 A, and 800 A), two-hole (400 A,
630 A) or four-hole (800 A) flat-pad terminals, or stud-type
terminals (400 A, 630 A, and 800 A).
The eyebolt, flat-pad, and stud terminals are made of

A crossarm mounting hanger is available for crossarm
installation. These are available in sets of two; one set is
needed for each SPEAR single-phase recloser. To order this
accessory, specify part number KA39H2.
