Connecting

9.1

General connection information

The SIRIUS 3RA6 compact starter is universally available with screw-type and spring-loaded

connection technology.

Stripping lengths

A stripping length of 10 mm applies in respect of the main, auxiliary and control conductor

connections.
The terminals are marked to make it easier to determine the stripping length. The correct

stripping length can be achieved by lining the conductor up with this marking.
