panel. Use at least one M4 screw for the device ground. The cross-sectional area
of the ground wire must be greater than or equal to the cross-sectional area of any
other control conductor connected to the device. Furthermore, the cross-sectional
area of the ground wire must be at least AWG 13.

the lugs or wires are inserted.
A ring lug must be centered in the connection chamber so that the screw thread fits
in the hole of the lug.
