Termination of Cable End

Treat the ends of stranded wires and solid wires without coating or using bar terminals with insulating sleeve.
Tighten the terminals to a torque of 0.22 to 0.25 Nm.
Do not tighten terminal screws with a torque outside the above-mentioned range. Failure to do so may cause
equipment failures
or malfunctions.
• Directly terminate the end of the stranded/single-wire cable:
- Terminate the end of the stranded cable so that "barbed wires"
cannot protrude.
- Do not solder-plate the end of the cable.
• Terminate the cable end using a rod terminal with insulation sleeve:
If the cable sheath 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.
