Land the conductors on the screw terminals, keep copper fully captured under the clamp, and secure the cable run so vibration does not work the conductors loose over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause this is an AC outlet for onboard distribution, installation should follow marine electrical practice for circuit protection and isolation. De-energize the circuit before wiring and verify correct polarity and secure mounting before putting the outlet into service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a 2P outlet intended for Euro-American plug styles that use parallel flat blades and 4.8 mm round pins.
