For tools for opening Cage Clamp terminals see Catalog LV 1,
Chapter 3, Accessories and Spare Parts.
Maximum external diameter of the conductor insulation: 3.6 mm.
For conductor cross-sections ≤ 1 mm² an "insulation stop" must
be used, see Catalog LV 1, Chapter 3, "Accessories and Spare
Parts".
1) When connecting cable lugs to DIN 46235, use 3RT19 56-4EA1 terminal
cover for conductor cross-sections from 95 mm² to ensure phase spacing.
2) If two different conductor cross-sections are connected to one clamping
point, both cross-sections must lie in the range specified. If identical crosssections
are used, this restriction does not apply.
