Wiring the Terminal Block

Prepare for wiring by following these guidelines:

•

Pull the wires and the phone cable through the opening in
the mounting plate (unless you are running them down
from the bottom of the mounting plate).

•

Prepare the wires by giving each:

• A clean cut

• A clean strip

• A tightly twisted end

•

Loosen the terminal block screws, pry the wire clamps
open with a paper clip, and insert the wires using needle-
nose pliers.

•

Tighten the screws firmly, but do not overtighten.

To wire the terminal block:

•

Insert the wires in the terminal block following the
sequence shown below.
