2. Connecting Wires to the Push-In Plus
Terminal Block
Part Names of the Terminal Block
Connecting Wires with Ferrules (hereinafter
referred to as Ferrules) and Solid Wires
Insert the solid wire or ferrule straight into the Terminal Block
until the end strikes the Terminal Block.
If a wire is difficult to connect because it is too thin, use a flat-blade
screwdriver in the same way as when connecting stranded wire.
When the wire is inserted, the wire insertion state indication part turns
in green.
Connecting Stranded Wires
Use the following procedure to connect the wires to the terminal block.
1.
Hold a flat-blade screwdriver at an angle and insert it into the
release hole.
The angle should be between 10° and 15°. If the flat-blade
screwdriver is inserted correctly, you will feel the spring in the
release hole respond.
2.
With the flat-blade screwdriver still inserted into the release hole,
insert the wire into the terminal hole until it strikes the terminal
block. Always twist stranded wires together before inserting them.
When the wire is inserted, the wire insertion state indication part
turns in green.
3.
Remove the flat-blade screwdriver from the release hole.
Checking Connections
• When you complete wiring, an indicator for the wire insertion state
turns to green.
• To prevent short circuits, insert the stripped part of a stranded or
solid wire or the conductor part of a ferrule until it is hidden inside
the terminal insertion hole.
• After the connection, the wire insertion state indication of the
indicator may shift by a load applied to the wire at wiring or other
causes. Even in such a case, there is no problem in the electrical
connection as long as the indicator shows a part of green to
indicate the proper insertion of wire.
3. Removing Wires from the Push-In Plus
Terminal Block
Use the following procedure to remove wires from the terminal block.
The same method is used to remove stranded wires, solid wires, and
ferrules.
1.
Hold a flat-blade screwdriver at an angle and insert it into the release
hole.
2.
With the flat-blade screwdriver still inserted into the release hole,
remove the wire from the terminal insertion hole.
3.
Remove the flat-blade screwdriver from the release hole.
