Bolting gear or distribution board sections

[Alwayslearningelec]

The notch and bolts used to bolt the sections together come with the equipment? I'm assuming not. Thanks

All of the switchgear that I've put together does come with hardware supplied. Transformers never do so you always want use grade 8 bolts when securing lugs to transformers.

Yes it comes with the gear. The bus sections may use special hardware like Belleville washers which the gear has been tested with. Eaton gear uses carriage bolts to connect the cabinets together.

They may or may not come with lugs, typcially they don't. Depends on who's supplying them and how they're ordered.
