those wires you can find on their homepage http://www.viessmann-modell.com/index.ph...%20H0.html (click on foto).
Those wire we bend on the end as a hook, the stright end goes thru the lug. This is an self made construct, only the raw wire we bought.
The vissmann wire is an steel wire with an smal cooper portion, it is stron enough, to make an clamping between the wire poles, so the wires has a little friction.
The sommerfeld wire is an pure cooper wire (better to solder) but not as good for making an clamping. Theis clamping goes for one modulare box to the other.
I try to find an close up pic.....
