- Verify that the cables and wires you intend to connect are compatible with the connector's specifications.
- Plan the cable routing to avoid unnecessary stress on the connector.
שלבי חיבור
- לפרק את המחבר: Unscrew the two end caps and remove the internal terminal block from the main body of the connector.
- הכן כבלים: For each cable, strip approximately 20-25 mm of the outer insulation. Then, strip about 7-9 mm of insulation from each individual wire (live, neutral, earth).
- הכנס חוטים: Loosen the screws on the terminal block. Insert the stripped ends of the wires into the corresponding terminals (Live, Neutral, Earth). Ensure no stray wire strands are exposed.
- הדקו את הדקים: Securely tighten the screws on the terminal block to firmly hold the wires. Gently tug on each wire to confirm it is properly secured.
- הרכבת מחבר: Carefully guide the prepared cables through the end caps and into the main body of the connector, ensuring the terminal block is correctly seated.
- בלוטות הידוק: Hand-tighten the end caps firmly onto the main body. Then, use an appropriate wrench to tighten the cable glands on both ends to ensure a watertight seal. Do not overtighten.
- בדיקה סופית: Visually inspect the assembled connector to ensure all parts are correctly aligned and tightened.
