Applicable Cable and Terminal Tightening Torque

To connect to the desired unit, use a cable having a conductor(s) of size AWG22 to 20.
To use a stranded cable, peel the cover off the cable, and then twist the core before connection. To use a
single-wire cable, just peel the cover off the cable before connection.

2. Termination of cable end
To terminate the cable, treat the stranded/single wire directly or use the rod terminal with insulation sleeve.
• To directly terminate end of stranded/single-wire cable:
- Twist the end of the stranded cable so that the "barbed wires"
cannot protrude.
- Do not solder-plate the end of the cable.
• To terminate cable end using rod terminal with insulation sleeve:
If the cable cover is too thick, it may be difficult to insert the cable into
the insulation sleeve. For this reason, select an appropriate cable while
referring to the external view.
