Removing the Finger-Safe Terminal Block
To remove the terminal block, loosen the upper and lower retaining
screws. The terminal block will back away from the module as you remove
the screws. When replacing the terminal block, torque the retaining screws
to 0.46 Nm (4.1 in-lbs).
Wiring the Finger-Safe Terminal Block
When wiring the terminal block, keep the finger-safe cover in place.
1. Loosen the terminal screws to be wired.
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).
NOTE
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.
NOTE
If you need to remove the finger-safe cover, insert a screw
driver 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.
