A braid/foil shielded power cable, terminated at power source end, with three 18
(1.0 mm), 16 (1.3 mm), or 14 (1.6 mm) AWG solid or stranded copper wire,
rated 80º C or better.
Perform the following steps to create the cable:
1.
Cut the wire cable to the desired length.
2.
Strip 0.25-inch (6 mm) of insulation from the end of the conductor wire. No bare
wire should be exposed when the cable is connected to the workstation.
3.
Tin the wire ends with solder if using stranded wire. This will keep the wire
from fraying.
Warning
When inserting the wire ends of the power cable into the block plug, be
sure there is no exposed wire. Trim the wire ends of the cable or cut a
new cable if necessary.
4.
Insert the three wire ends of the power cable into the three holes of the block
plug. Insert the Protective Earth GND ground, L1, and L2/N wires into the
corresponding holes, as shown in Figure 3-16. Be sure that no bare wires are
exposed.

5.
Tighten the three screws above the wires to hold them firmly in place.
Warning
Never tighten the three screws of the block plug when the cable is
connected to a power source. The screws are conductive and have full
contact with the cable wire.
6.
Use a cable clamp and #6-32 screw (provided) to secure and provide strain relief
to the power cable. When installing the power cable to the unit, use the securing
