    One suggestion. Some of the terminals are wrapped counter clockwise to the screw.

    You want them to be looped in such a way that when the screw is tightened the loop is pulled into the screw instead of being pushed away from it.

    You can see the way it’s wired here. Each one relative to the screw.

      I remember when my gramps showed me that when I was about 12 and was helping him wire in his house.

      wish he was still around, old timers had alot of wisdom and tricks I don’t see anymore. (they also did some really FUBAR things too 😆)
