Wire Size and Terminal Screw Torque

Each terminal accepts up to two wires with the following restrictions:

System Assembly

The expansion I/O module is attached to the controller or another I/O module by means of a
flat ribbon cable after mounting.

TIP

If you need to remove the finger-safe cover, insert a screw driver into one of
the square wiring holes and gently pry the cover off. If you wire the terminal
block with the finger-safe cover removed, you will not be able to put it back
on the terminal block because the wires will be in the way.
