Why Choose the Cembre 2397060 C250-38 Colour-Coded Copper Cable Lug?
The Cembre 2397060, manufacturer reference C250-38, is a premium colour-coded copper compression cable lug designed for the secure termination of large copper conductors in industrial power distribution, switchgear, motor control centres and heavy-duty electrical installations. Manufactured from high-purity electrolytic copper, it delivers outstanding electrical conductivity together with excellent mechanical strength for demanding industrial applications.
Manufactured using annealed electrolytic copper with an electrolytic tin-plated finish, the lug provides excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation while maintaining long-term electrical performance. The long barrel design, chamfered cable entry and inspection hole simplify conductor insertion and ensure reliable compression using compatible Cembre crimping tools.
Designed for 250 mm² copper conductors, the C250-38 incorporates a 10.5 mm palm hole suitable for M10 fixings. Its white colour-coded die marking with die index 30 enables rapid tooling selection, helping installers achieve accurate, repeatable compression connections.
