.......
4.4.1 Screw-Lock Assemblies, Potting Shells, Back Shells, Clamps

.......

-------------
Justification for the above amendments are:
1 – Removal of obsolete variants facilitating use of the same variant numbers for the new design accessories which are considered form, fit and function interchangeable with the obsolete versions.

2 – Clarification for users.

3, 4, 5, 7 – Editorial corrections for the purposes of clarity, consistency and completeness.

5, 6 - Definition of the base material and plating is considered sufficient without reference to specific non-ESCC material specifications; It is considered unnecessary to prescribe the actual material specifications to be applied by the Manufacturer (which will be controlled by their PID).

For modified Variants 39 to 43, Right Angle Clamp, in Figure 2(e), replace the figure with the one attached (including addition of new dimension 'D' and correction of dimension ‘G’)
