Note

The diameter of the terminal screw heads is 5.5 mm (0.220 in.). The input and
output terminals of the micro controller are designed for the following spade lugs:

Call-out

Dimension

C

6.35 mm (0.250 in.)

E

10.95 mm (0.431 in.) maximum

L

14.63 mm (0.576 in.) maximum

W

6.35 mm (0.250 in.)

X

3.56 mm (0.140 in.)

C+X

9.91 mm (0.390 in.) maximum

We recommend using either of the following AMP spade lugs: part number
53120-1, if using 22–16 AWG, or part number 53123-1, if using 16–14 AWG.

Note

If you use wires without lugs, make sure the wires are securely captured by the
pressure plate. This is particularly important at the four end terminal positions
where the pressure plate does not touch the outside wall.

Be careful when stripping wires. Wire fragments that fall into the
controller could cause damage. Do not strip wires above a mounted
controller if the protective wrap is removed.
