Use a crimper for non-insulated wire or solder the ends on. Use the CW-80. Put the wall pack away. use needle nose pliers to get them on.
Yes I have been useing heavy wire for the power, but I will order those female tips to solder them...I'm big on soldering.. I just thought it was funny as to how warm/hot that power point got.....Thanks
They are available for 14-16 which is what I use. I use the uninsulated because it's a tight fit on some of the locations. You also have to watch for the ground bar connecting the outside rails in some locations under the hot terminal. I put a piece of electrical tape if I use that area.
The heavier wire is better. Not sure why you would get warm terminals. Perhaps from the wall pack being connected. Just run AC.
