(7) Stripping the cable end
(a) The cable strip length must be approx. 10mm. If the cable is stripped
too much, conductors may stick out of the terminal block and may
cause an electric shock or short circuit with an adjacent terminal
block.
If the stripped length is too short, sufficient contact may not be
ensured.
(b) For use of bar terminals, pay attention to the following:
1) Select a bar terminal suitable for the cable size.
2) Use an appropriate crimp tool to crimp the bar terminal.
3) Insert the cable so that cable cores will stick out 0 to 0.5mm from
the sleeve edge.
4) Check the appearance of the bar terminal after crimping. If it is not
crimped properly or is damaged on the side, do not use the
terminal. (See the following illustrations.)
