Why Choose the Cembre 2340860 A48-2M14 Two-Hole Copper Compression Terminal?

The Cembre 2340860 A48-2M14 Copper Compression Terminal is a premium non-insulated two-hole copper compression terminal engineered to deliver secure, low-resistance electrical connections for industrial power distribution, switchgear and OEM electrical equipment. Part of the renowned Cembre A-2M Series, it features a dual fixing arrangement that provides exceptional mechanical stability and resistance to vibration and electrodynamic forces.

Manufactured from more than 99.9% pure electrolytic copper with an electrolytically tin-plated finish, the terminal offers excellent electrical conductivity while protecting against corrosion and oxidation. The annealed copper construction enables easier compression crimping and significantly improves mechanical durability.

Designed for 185–240 mm² flexible copper conductors, the A48-2M14 features two M14 fixing holes spaced at 44.5 mm centres, together with a chamfered barrel entry and inspection hole to ensure rapid installation and reliable long-term performance.
