static wristband grounded through a cable.

static working area. If possible, use antistatic mats and work pads.
8.3 Connect Conductor to CAGE CLAMP
®
CAUTION
Select conductor cross sections as required for current load!
The current consumed for field-side supply may not exceed 10 A. The wire cross sections
must be sufficient for the maximum current load for all of the input/output terminal clamps
to be supplied with power.
Observe for connection:
•
The WAGO CAGE CLAMP
®
connection is appropriate for solid, stranded
and finely stranded conductors.
•
Connect only one conductor per CAGE CLAMP
®
.
•
If multiple conductors are to be applied to one connection connect them
by using an upstream wiring such as WAGO through terminal blocks.

above the connec-
tion.
The CAGE CLAMP
®
will open.
2. Insert the conductor into the corresponding connection opening.
3. Then remove the operating tool.
The CAGE CLAMP
