N

The length of the exposed wires in the stripping process

is critical. The ideal length is 3/16” (5 mm). If the

stripped section of wire is longer than 3/16”, the exposed

wires may touch, causing a short circuit between them.

If the stripped section of wire is shorter than 3/16”, the

wires can be easily pulled out even if tightly fastened by

the captive screws.

C

Do not tin the wires. Tinned wire does not hold its

shape and can become loose over time.
