Wiring the Finger-Safe Terminal Block

When wiring the terminal block, keep the finger-safe cover in place.

1. Loosen the terminal screws to be wired.

2. Route the wire under the terminal pressure plate. You can use the bare

wire or a spade lug. The terminals will accept a 6.35 mm (0.25 in.) spade
lug.

3. Tighten the terminal screw making sure the pressure plate secures the

wire. Recommended torque when tightening terminal screws is 0.68 Nm
(6 in-lbs).

NOTE

The terminal screws are non-captive. Therefore, it is
possible to use a ring lug [maximum 1/4 inch o.d. with a
0.139 inch minimum i.d. (M3.5)] with the module.

NOTE

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.
