• Connections are realized via the plug terminals or screw terminals on the rear side of the device according
to the circuit diagram. When using forked lugs for direct connections or screw terminal, the screws, before
having inserted the lugs and wires, must be tightened in such a way that the screw heads are even with the
terminal block. A ring lug must be centered in the connection chamber, in such a way that the screw thread
fits in the hole of the lug. The SIPROTEC
