Spade Lug Recommendation
The diameter of the terminal screw head is 5.5 mm (0.220 in.). The input and output
terminals of the MicroLogix 1200 controller are designed for the following spade lugs. The
terminals will accept a 6.35mm (0.25 in.) wide spade (standard for #6 screw for up to 14
AWG) or a 4 mm (metric #4) fork terminal.
When using spade lugs, use a small, flat-blade screwdriver to pry the finger-safe cover from
the terminal blocks. Then loosen the terminal screw.
TIP
If you wire the terminal block with the finger-safe cover
removed, you may not be able to put it back on the terminal
block if the wires are in the way.
