Copper Switchgear Connector 240mm

Product Description

Copper Switchgear Connector

The CABAC copper switchgear connector range is designed for terminating copper conductors onto a 12mm copper switchgear stem.

The switchgear connector consists of a copper lug and a steel clamping collar. The copper lug is made from 99.9%+ cu high conductivity copper. A slot is machined in the copper lug into which the 12mm switchgear stem is inserted.

A clamping collar incorporating an allen head grub screw applies pressure between the switchgear stem and copper lug to achieve current transfer through this bolted connection. The clamping collar is made from a zinc plated steel ring and a cut in the ring prevents heat generating eddy currents from flowing in the steel ring.

The connectors are made to Australian dimensions and can be crimped with standard Australian tooling.
