38 Installation and Wiring
3. Route the wire under the terminal pressure plate.
You can use the bare wire or a spade lug.
The terminals accept a 6.35 mm (0.25 in.) spade lug.
4. Tighten the terminal screw making sure the pressure plate secures the
wire.
Recommended torque when tightening terminal screws is
0.68 Nm (6 lb-in).
Wire the Module
After the module is properly installed, follow the wiring procedure below.
1. String about 5 mm (3/16 in.) of insulation away to expose the end of the
wire at each end of a signal wire.
2. Connect one end of the signal wire to the terminal block.
Refer to Input and Output Wiring on page 39.
3. Connect the other end of the signal wire to the input or output device.
4. Repeat steps 1…3 for each signal wire.
TIP
The terminal screws are non-captive. Therefore, it is possible to
use a ring lug (maximum 1/4 in. o.d. with a 0.139 in. minimum
i.d. (M3.5)) with the module.
TIP
If you need to remove the finger-safe cover, insert a screwdriver
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.
ATTENTION
To prevent shock hazard, care should be taken when wiring the
module to signal sources. Before wiring any module, disconnect
power from the system power supply and from any other source
to the module.
