LR LR NOTES: • The length of exposed wires is critical. The ideal length is 3/16 inch (5 mm). • If the stripped section of wire is longer than 3/16 inch, the exposed wires may touch, causing a short circuit. • If the stripped section of wire is shorter than 3/16 inch, wires can be easily pulled out even if tightly fastened by the captive screws. • Do not tin the power supply leads before installing them in the connector. Tinned wires are not as secure in the connector and could be pulled out.
