Step3 Measure enough wire (6 AWG [10 square mm] or larger three-wire solid or stranded copper wire with
insulation rating for 140°F [60°C]) to connect the DC PEM terminal block to the power source.
Note It is recommended that you use the Panduit LC AS6-10-L.
Step4 Cut the ends of the wire so that the ends are straight, not slanted.
Step5 Measure 1/4 inch (6 mm) up from one end of the wire and place a mark at that point.
Step6 Use a wire stripper to remove 1/4 inch (6 mm) of the covering from the end of the wire. Trim the end of
the covering so that it is straight, not slanted.
Step7 Attach a ring or space lug on the end of copper wire you prepared in Step 6. T he stripped part of the wire
must be fully inserted so that no bare wire is exposed.
Step8 Attach the end of the wire with the ring or space lug to the 48-VDC return, as shown in Figure5-29.
