May a solid conductor be connected to a GST or RST connector?

Answer:  Yes, the GST18 and RST20 screw connectors and spring-clamp connectors are suitable for mounting on solid cable. This is used, for example, to transition a conventional installation cable from the meter box to a pluggable electrical distribution point in the form of a GST18 splitter block. For the correct stripping lengths and minimum/maximum diameters, always check the data sheet or instructions for the relevant connector. When mounting on a solid cable, it is even more important to ensure that no mechanical forces act on the pluggable electrical connection.
