3.6 Strain Relief Disc
The strain relief disc prevents accidental disconnection of
the input wires and acts as a seal to prevent moisture and
dirt from entering the area with the receptacles.
1. Thread the input wires through the centre hole of the
disc (figure 1), then connect the wires to the board.
Apply silicone grease to the plug connectors before
inserting into the board (see section 3.5).
2. Fasten the wires to the strain relief disc using the
provided zip-tie. Cut excess zip tie material, ensuring
no sharp edges remain. This is necessary to prevent
accidental wire disconnection.

Sealing the Input Board
1. Apply a small amount of silicone grease at the
perimeter seal between the disc and the ring.
2. Line up the fastener holes on the disc to the mounting
threads on the input board, then gently press the
disc to the board. (Figure 2)
3.
Use (two) M2 x 5mm fasteners and washers to secure
the disc to the input board (figure 3). A 1.3mm Allen
wrench has been provided to tighten the fasteners
finger-snug (2 in-lb/0.23 N-m).
4. It is important to seal the holes where the wires pass
through the strain relief disc before final assembly of
the socket. Apply RTV silicone over the strain relief
hole, zip-tie hole, and wires (figure 4).
