To prepare the new terminal block for installation, confirm all four power wire screws are unthreaded.
12
Insert the block’s upper tab into the slot in the junction box, then thread the mounting screw.

Matching white-to-white and black-to-black, align the power wires on the appropriate terminals on the new block and thread the screws to secure.

Reposition the junction box cover and replace the screw.
