What type of lugs are standard on the HGL36070 breaker?

This unit-mount breaker comes standard with AL150HD mechanical lugs on both the line and load sides. These lugs accept 14 AWG to 3/0 AWG aluminum or copper wire.

What is the recommended tightening torque for the AL150HD lugs on this breaker?

For 14 AWG to 10 AWG wire, the tightening torque is 44.3 lb-in (5 N.m). For 8 AWG to 3/0 AWG wire, the required torque is 124 lb-in (14 N.m).

Can the HGL36070 be installed directly into a Square D I-Line panelboard?
