UNIT SUBSTATIONS (YEFR)
This listing covers unit substations intended to be installed in accordance with the reauiremotits of the National Electrical Code and in accordance with the installation instructions provided on the unit substation.
A unit substation consists of a transformer in combination with primary and/or secondary overcurrent protective devices or switching devices housed in a single enclosure.
Some unit substations are suitable for use as service equipment and are so marked. Such marking is part of the listing mark as noted below, or is an integral part of other required markings.
Listed unit substations arc for use with copper conductors unless marked to indicate which terminals are suitable for use with aluminum conductors. Such marking shall be independent of any marking on terminal connectors end shall be on a wiring diagram or other readily visible location. H all terminals are suitable for use with aluminum conductors, the marking will indicate "Use copper or aluminum wire.** A unit substation employing terminals for main or branch circuit units individually Marked Cu-Al will be marked "Use copper-Al wire" or "Use copper wive only." The latter statement indicates that wiring space or other factors make the unit substation unsuitable for aluminum conductors.
Unless the unit substation is marked with both the size and temperature rating of wire to he used, the termination provisions are based on the use of 60 C ampacities for wire sites Nos. 14*1 Awg and 76 C ampacities for wire Nos. 1/0 Awg and larger.
Unit substations have the secondary neutral bonded to the enclosure and have provision on the neutral for connection of a grounding conductor. A terminal is also provided nfi the enclosure near the line terminals for use with an equipment grounding conductor between the unit substation and the enclosure of equipment on the line side of the unit uhstaiion for use when a metallic conduit system is not provided,
Unit substations are marked for outdoor use or for indoor use. The suitability of unit substations for use on high capacity circuits has not been Investigated. The Listing Mark of Underwriters Laboratories Inc. on the product is the only method pic* vided by UL to identify products manufactured under its Listing and Follow-Up Service. The Listing Mark for these products includes the name and/or symbol of Underwriters Laboratories Inc. ias illustrated in the Introduction of this Directory! together with the word "Listed", a control number, and the following product name: "Unit Substation".

Maximum Working Voltage
1000 2000 S000 4000 000 As stated is the individual listings,
certain manufacturers are also listed for wires with voltage rating up to 6000 volts.
Type AVB wire may employ copper, or aluminum, or copper-clad aluminum conductors, Wires with copper-clad aluminum conductors are surface printed f,AL (CU-CLAD)." Wires with aluminum conductors shall be surface printed "AL."
The ampacity of copper-dad aluminum conductors is the same as for aluminum
conductors. The wire connectors used with copper-clad aluminum conductors shall be recognized for use with copper and aluminum conductors and shall be marked "AL-CTJ," except that 12-10 Awg solid copper-clad aluminum conductors may be used with wire
binding screws and in pressure-plate and push-in spring-type connecting mechanisms that are recognized for use with copper conductors. Copper-clad aluminum conductors are suit able for intermixing with copper or aluminum conductors in terminals for splicine connections oniy when the wire connectors Are specifically recognized for such use. Such intermixed connections are limited to use in dry locations.
