Preform wires to the appropriate shape to suit fitting into the mains terminal block.

Strip inner insulation on wires using wire strippers.

Twist the bared wires using pliers.

Cut bared wires 10mm away from the end of the inner insulation. Where uninsulated Earth wires are used ensure they are suitably sheathed to leave 10mm bare wire to fit into the terminal.

Clamp bare wires into the relevant terminal and check they are held by tugging each one in turn.

Clamp the mains cable securely ensuring 5mm of the outer insulation is inside the terminal block and that the wires are not taut but not so slack as to cause any fouling. See diagram.
