Why Choose the Cembre 2396970 CL4/0-D38 Colour-Coded Copper Cable Lug?
The Cembre 2396970, manufacturer reference CL4/0-D38, is a premium colour-coded copper compression cable lug engineered for secure, low-resistance termination of large copper conductors in industrial power distribution, switchgear and electrical control systems. Manufactured from high-purity electrolytic copper, it delivers excellent electrical conductivity and dependable long-term mechanical performance.
The lug features an electrolytic tin-plated finish that helps resist oxidation and corrosion, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments. Its annealed construction, long barrel, chamfered cable entry and inspection hole enable quick installation and consistent compression when used with the correct Cembre tooling.
Designed for 110 mm² copper conductors, the CL4/0-D38 incorporates a 10.5 mm mounting hole suitable for M10 fixings. The purple die marking and die index 19 simplify die selection, helping installers achieve reliable, repeatable crimps.
