Always check the polarity of 

the cables and the junction box 

terminals.

Opening the junction box

To open the junction box, use a Philips 

screwdriver to loosen the retaining screws. 

Versions

Junction box with a single terminal 

(single pole). 

Do not remove the plastic cover 

from the unused terminal.

Wiring

Strip 16 mm of insulation from the end of 

the wire. Wire size must range from 

12 AWG - 16 AWG (1.5-4 mm²)

Pass 

only one

 wire through the wire entry 

by pressing it through the foam seal.

Pass the bare end between the clamping 

plate and the washer of the screw. Tighten 

the screw with a maximum torque of 

2.3 Nm

If strain relief is necessary, route the wire 

along the bracket, pass a short cable tie 

through the slot and secure the cable tie.

After making the electrical 

connections……

Replace the covers on the junction boxes 

and carefully tighten the four retaining 

screws (0.5-0.7 Nm). Do not apply any 

supplementary sealant to the junction 

boxes.

(both poles).

Wiring

Strip 16 mm of insulation from the end of 

the wire.

Loosen the nut of the cable fitting.

Pass the wire through the fitting and 

route it to the terminal. Pay attention 

to the polarity.

Using a small flat-blade screwdriver, press 

down on the terminal clamp. Feed the 

end of the wire into the opening in the 

terminal.
