Connector Type Identification
The VL2B and VL2C luminaire contains the following connector types:
5.1.1
MTA-100 and MTA-156
CON_MTA
POSITION 1
STRAIN
RELIEF
MTA-100 and MTA-156 connectors are used to connect wires to PC
boards. MTA-100 connectors are smaller in size and use smaller
diameter wire than MTA-156 connectors. The connectors range from
two through ten positions and come in red, yellow and black colors.
A strain relief is usually used in conjunction with the connector to
protect the wire connection. This illustration shows a typical five
position MTA style connector and strain relief.

CONTACT
PIN
RECEPTACLE
PLUG
CPC connectors are used to connect luminaire wiring to external
cables. The VL2 luminaire input panel uses one nine position CPC
connector (receptacle type). Contact pins are installed on the wires
and the wires and contact pins are inserted into the CPC connector.
Refer to the Connector Pin Locations section in this chapter for
position identification.
