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).

Wire Size and Terminal Screw Torque

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

TIP

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.

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.
