Wiring the Finger-Safe Terminal Block
When wiring the terminal block, keep the finger-safe cover in place.
1. Route the wire under the terminal pressure plate. You can use the stripped end
of the wire or a spade lug. The terminals will accept a 6.35 mm (0.25 in.)
spade lug.
2.
Tighten the terminal screw making sure the pressure plate secures the wire.
Recommended torque when tightening terminal screws is 0.904 Nm (8 in-lbs).
3.
After wiring is complete, remove the debris shield.
!
ATTENTION
Be careful when stripping wires. Wire fragments that fall into
a module could cause damage when power is applied. Once
wiring is complete, ensure the module is free of all metal
fragments.
NOTE
If you need to remove the finger-safe cover, insert a screw
driver into one of the square wiring holes and gently pry the
cover off. If you wire the terminal block with the finger-safe
cover removed, you will not be able to put it back on the
terminal block because the wires will be in the way.
