E5@C-B (Models with Push-In Plus Terminal Blocks)
1. Connecting to the Push-In Plus Terminal Block
Part Names of the Terminal Block
Connecting Wires with Ferrules or Solid Wires
Insert the solid wire or ferrule straight into the terminal block until the end touches the terminal block.
If a wire is difficult to connect because it is too thin, use a flat-blade screwdriver in the same way as when
connecting stranded wire.
Connecting Stranded Wires
Use the following procedure to connect the wires to the terminal block.
(1) Hold a flat-blade screwdriver at an angle and insert it into the release hole. The angle
should be between 10° and 15°. If the flat-blade screwdriver is inserted correctly, you will
feel the spring in the release hole.
(2) With the flat-blade screwdriver still inserted into the release hole, insert the wire into the
terminal hole until it strikes the terminal block.
(3) Remove the flat-blade screwdriver from the release hole.
Checking Connections
• After the insertion, pull gently on the wire to make sure that it will not come off and the wire is
securely fastened to the terminal block.
• To prevent short circuits, insert the stripped part of a stranded or solid wire or the conductive part
of a ferrule until it is hidden inside the terminal insertion hole. (See the following diagram.)
