For the DC connections, use compression lugs with a single hole for a ½ in or M12 stud and sized for the wire
gauge used. The width of the lugs must be 1.5 in (38 mm) or less. Torque to 220 in-lbs (25 N-m) using an
18mm socket and torque driver. A hex nut and washer are provided. The terminal block accepts single or
parallel conductor sets. See Figure 3-17 for the hardware assembly instructions.
