Connect The Spring-Type Terminal (Push-In) - Siemens 3RS2 Manual

To make optimum use of available terminal space, you are advised to choose a form of crimping
that creates a corresponding rectangular contour. Trapezoidal crimping is highly suitable in this
case.
When a conductor is used that utilizes the full overall height, the terminal spring is deflected to
the maximum. It may therefore be difficult to remove this conductor because it requires further
deflection of the spring.
