How do I wire a terminal block? Terminal blocks are simple to wire. Wiring depends on what type of terminal block you have. These specific terminal blocks are spring-cage terminal blocks. To wire spring cage terminal blocks you can either use a strong non-flexible cable or use a cable with a ferrule on. Simply strip your cable and clamp a ferrule if you're using one, insert a screwdriver into the actuation shaft to open the terminal point, push your conductor in and remove your screwdriver. Ensure your conductor is pushed in as far as it can go. Complete Line: The STTB series is apart of Phoenix Contacts vast and comprehensive portfolio.
