Feed Sensor Cable
Components Required
Prepare the Cable
Cut the feed sensor cable 23 cm from where it enters the existing junction box.
Slide connector pieces 1, 2, and 3 onto the cable. See image below for the correct position of each piece.
Strip 25 mm of the outer sheath from the cable end. Then strip 5 mm of insulation from each wire. Take care not to damage the conductor strands. Keep the exposed conductors clean.
