Terminal Strip Connections - Carrier AirStream 42WKN08-36 Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual

Terminal Strip Connections

The terminal strip connections are designed to clamp down
on the incoming building power and thermostat wiring con-
nections. To properly connect the wires to the terminal strip:
1. Push a small flat head screwdriver into the square hole
on the terminal. Press firmly until the screwdriver hits
the back stop and opens the terminal. See Fig. 44.
2. Remove approximately
of the wire and push the stripped wire into the oval hole
in the terminal.
3. Remove the screwdriver. Pull on the wire to make sure
that it is securely clamped in the terminal.
4. Make sure that the terminal clamp is in contact with bare
wire (insulation removed).
