What happens here
Using a screwdriver, the presenter demonstrates the tightening action of a terminal screw on an electrical device. As the screwdriver is turned clockwise, the screw visibly moves downwards and inwards, indicating that turning it in this direction secures the connection. This visual proof reinforces why the wire loop must be aligned to match this clockwise tightening motion for a secure fit.
Goal: Visually confirm the clockwise tightening action of a terminal screw.
