B-LINE R1036 HC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the B-Line R1036 HC bussed gutter be installed outdoors?
Yes. The R1036 HC termination cabinet carries a NEMA Type 3R rating, so it is built for outdoor, rain-exposed locations such as an exterior wall next to a service entrance. The enclosure is galvanized steel finished in ANSI 61 gray paint, and it is UL Listed.
2) What size conductors will land in the line lugs of the B-Line R1036 HC termination cabinet?
Line lugs accept #4 through 600 MCM, which covers everything from a modest feeder up to a large parallel-set service conductor. On the load side, the bus is drilled with 5/16 inch mounting holes so you bolt on the load lugs sized for your own terminations. The description also calls out (2) 1/0-250 MCM cables on the line side.
3) Is 400 A and 10 kAIC enough for my service tap application?
The bus in the R1036 HC is rated 400 A continuous with a 10 kAIC short circuit interrupt rating. That suits typical multi-family and light commercial tap boxes fed from a service under 10,000 A available fault current. If your utility transformer puts more than 10 kA at the terminals, you need a higher-braced gutter.
4) How much wall space do I need for the B-Line R1036 HC gutter, and how is it mounted?
It is a surface mount cabinet measuring 36 in wide, 22 in high and 6 in deep. Allow for the 95 lb weight when picking anchors and backing, that is a two-person lift onto the wall.
5) How many wires does the bus in the R1036 HC handle?
The cabinet is configured for 3 wires, so it lands a set of phase conductors plus the associated neutral or grounded conductor arrangement for that configuration. Match your feeder wire count to that before ordering.
6) Do load lugs come with the B-Line R1036 HC bussed gutter?
The bus is provided with 5/16 inch mounting holes for load lugs, which means the load terminations are bolted on to suit the job. Plan to specify lugs matched to your load conductor size and to those 5/16 inch holes.
7) Will the finish on this outdoor termination cabinet hold up on a coastal or exposed wall?
The shell is galvanized steel with an ANSI 61 gray paint finish over it, the standard gray used on utility and switchgear equipment, so it blends with adjacent meter stacks and gear. The galvanizing under the paint is what carries it in a wet 3R location.
8) What part number do I order for the 400 A B-Line bussed gutter?
Order Eaton B-Line model R1036 HC. That is the 400 A, NEMA 3R, 10 kAIC bussed gutter and termination cabinet in galvanized steel.
