Furutech AC torque


I am re-making a power cable using Furutech FI-28 (R) plugs.  Does anyone have the package insert that specifies the amount of torque to the screw terminations?  Thanks!

For the poles, the instructions state 150 cN*m or 150 centi Newton meters. This is about 1.1 foot-pounds.

Wattgate advises about 12 in-lbs torque which is 1 foot-pounds. So, about the same.

From what I can tell, hard hand tight might exceed 3 foot-pounds. It depends on your hand and wrist strength.

I think the main issue is you don’t want to tighten so hard you could break the small stranded wires.
