1) Termination of the cables
Solid wire: After the sheath has been stripped, the cable can be used as it is.
Approx. 10mm
(0.39inch)
Twisted wire: Use the cable after stripping the sheath and twisting the core. At this time, take
care to avoid a short caused by the loose wires of the core and the adjacent pole.
Do not solder the core as it may cause a contact fault. Alternatively, a bar
terminal may be used to put the wires together.
