Split bolt connection. Wire direction
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
Should the wires being hooked up in a split bolt connector be running side by side, like in a wire nut connection, or running towards each other, in opposite directions. Or does it matter?

If I have 4 wires and I can arrange them neatly to come from both sides then I tend to do 2 and 2...
But if 4 on one side is neatest or convenient...
