This can result in a poor electrical connection or even a complete loss of connection. Be sure to tighten the terminal screws securely to ensure a secure connection.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Troubleshooting Tip:<\/strong> Check all terminal block connections and use a screwdriver to tighten any loose screws. Make sure the wire is inserted correctly into the terminal block and makes good contact with the conductive part of the terminal.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Incorrect_stripping\"><\/span>Incorrect stripping<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Another mistake is the improper stripping of wires.
