To make optimum use of available terminal space, you are advised to choose a form of crimping
that creates a corresponding rectangular contour. Trapezoidal crimping is highly suitable in this
case.
When a conductor is used that utilizes the full overall height, the terminal spring is deected to
the maximum. It may therefore be dicult to remove this conductor because it requires further
deection of the spring.

WARNING
Hazardous voltage
Can cause death, serious injury, or property damage.
Turn o and lock out all power supplying this device before working on this device.
The spring-type (push-in) connections allow wiring without tools for rigid conductors or
conductors equipped with end sleeves.
For wiring nely-stranded or stranded conductors without end sleeves on spring-type (push-in)
terminals, a screwdriver is required to open the spring terminal.
Tool
DIN 5264 screwdriver with size 0.5 x 3 mm (for nely-stranded conductors only). (Article
number of the screwdriver: 3RA2908-1A)
Requirements
For suitable connection cross-sections of the cables, see chapter Connection data for terminals
(Page 76).
