3. Connect the cables together to make the circuit.
4. Configure the cable clamp with the black plastic cable
gripper.
a)
a)The black plastic gripper should be left in place for
cables with an overall diameter less than 6mm. Typically
this will be 1mm, 1.5mm and 2.5mm (6242Y) twin and
earth and small flex.
b)For larger cables with an overall diameter of
approximately 7 - 8mm the black plastic gripper can be
removed as the cables will be gripped by the housing.
5. Adjust the gripper to make inserting cables easier. If the
diameter of the cable is approximately 5mm the gripper
can be adjusted to make inserting the cable easier. Use
a pair of narrow nosed pliers to squeeze the top of the
gripper increasing the gap between the top edge of the
gripper and the teeth of the cable clamp.
b)
6. Arrange the cables and connectors over the WAGOBOX
Light ensuring the outer sheath of the cables protrudes past
the grippers into the inside of the WAGOBOX Light.
7. Push the cables down into the clamps as far as they will
go. Close the lid and snap shut.
8. If required the WAGOBOX Light can be fitted to a surface
using the WAGOBOX mounting button feature. The base
of the WAGOBOX Light has two sliding slots,
either one or both can be used. Simply fix
the mounting button to the
required position and
slide the WAGOBOX
Light into place. The lid
of the WAGOBOX Light
can be secured with a tie
wrap if necessary.
