Note
The screw-type terminal block is installed using Phillips screws and compression
plates, allowing either bare wire connections or crimped terminal lugs. Use #6 size
ring lugs for secure, reliable screws, which must be removed to make connections.
Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment.
Do not connect AC power cables to a 12, 24 or 48 VDC power supply terminal block.
Damage to the power supply may occur.
When connecting the device to a DC power source, make sure the source provides
only positive voltage.
