(AWG 14).
• Establish connections via the plug-in or screw connections on the rear panel of the
housing according to circuit diagram.
For screw connections with forked lugs or direct connection, before inserting wires
the screws must be tightened so that the screw heads are flush with the outer edge
of the connection block.
A ring lug must be centred in the connection chamber in such a way that the screw
thread fits in the hole of the lug.
