Why Choose the Cembre 2508610 Compression Cable Lug?
The Cembre 2508610 is a premium heavy-duty tin-plated copper compression cable lug engineered to provide secure, low-resistance electrical terminations for demanding industrial power distribution, grounding and medium-voltage applications. Manufactured by Cembre, this robust connector offers outstanding electrical conductivity, excellent mechanical strength and long-term reliability in critical electrical installations.
Part of the trusted Cembre 2A-M Heavy Duty series, the 2508610 (alternative reference 2A60-M20) is manufactured from high-purity annealed electrolytic copper and electro-tin plated to resist atmospheric corrosion. Its extra-long barrel maximises conductor contact for improved crimp performance, while the closed-end design without an inspection hole helps prevent moisture ingress, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor installations up to 35 kV.
Designed for 300 mm² copper conductors, the lug incorporates a single M20 fixing hole, making it ideal for substations, switchgear, transformers, industrial control panels, renewable energy systems and heavy-duty power distribution equipment.
Single M20 stud fixing for high-current applications.
Extra-long barrel for enhanced electrical and mechanical performance.
Closed-end design helps prevent moisture ingress.
Excellent conductivity with low contact resistance.
High resistance to vibration and mechanical stress.
Suitable for industrial and medium-voltage installations up to 35 kV.
