Why Choose the Cembre 2281930 A24-2M12 Copper Compression Terminal?
The Cembre 2281930 (A24-2M12) is a high-quality two-hole copper compression terminal engineered for secure, low-resistance termination of 120 mm² stranded copper conductors. Manufactured from annealed electrolytic copper with a purity exceeding 99.9% and finished with an electrolytic tin coating, it provides excellent conductivity, corrosion resistance and long-term reliability in demanding industrial and power distribution applications.
Part of the proven Cembre A24-2M Series, this compression lug features a dual M12 fixing hole configuration with 44.5 mm hole centres, offering superior mechanical stability compared to standard single-hole terminals. Its funnel entry and inspection hole ensure quick conductor insertion and correct positioning before crimping.
Designed specifically for 120 mm² copper cable, the Cembre 2281930 is ideally suited for switchgear, substations, industrial control panels, power distribution systems and OEM machinery where secure, vibration-resistant electrical connections are essential.
