Comments

1. Preparation of workplace. Making available the working materials.

Check tools and materials for completeness.

2. Checking of initial length.

Cut conductor to length, if necessary. (1)

3. Stripping of conductors.

Stripping length 1 depends on size of clamped joint 1. Don't notch the conductors when stripping them. (2)

4. Unscrewing of the screw.

Unscrew just as much as necessary for inserting the conductors.
