Garmin GAD 43 Installation Manual - Page 27

NOTE Each tapped hole on the shield block (2) may accommodate only two ring terminals (15). It is preferred that a maximum of two wires (13) be terminated per ring terminal. Two wires per ring terminal will necessitate the use of a ring terminal, #8, insulated, 14-16 AWG (MS25036-153). If only a single wire is left or if only a single wire is need for this connector a ring terminal, #8, insulated, 18-22 AWG (MS25036-149) can accommodate this single wire. If more wires exist for the connector than two per ring terminal, it is recommended that only three wires are terminated in each ring terminal to ensure a good electrical connection. 6. Install ring terminals (15) onto the wires (13), grouping wires as appropriate for the connector. 7. Terminate the ring terminals to the shield block (2) by placing items on the pan head screw (16) in the following order: split washer (17), flat washer (18), first ring terminal, second ring terminal if needed, before finally inserting the screw into the tapped holes on the shield block. 3.7 Unit Installation The GAD 43 is mounted with four or six 6/32" screws and self-locking nuts depending on the type of installation.
