the terminal plate.
(3) Insert the wire and tighten the terminal screw
completely using a screwdriver.

the insulation to expose the solid wire about
25 mm. (Fig. 29)
(2) Using a screwdriver, remove the terminal screw(s)
on the terminal plate.
(3) Using the pliers, bend the solid wire to form a loop
suitable for the terminal screw.
