Item Description
1 Wiring the finger-safe terminal block
2 Lower retaining screws
3 Upper retaining screws
The terminal screws are non-captive. You can use a ring lug [maximum 6.35
mm (0.25 in.) o.d. with a 3.53 mm (0.139 in.) minimum i.d. (M3.5)] with the
module.
If you need to remove the finger-safe cover, insert a screwdriver 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 cannot put it back on the terminal
block because of wires in the way.
