Secure Heavy-Duty Crimp Terminations for Large Power Cables
Large copper conductors require appropriately sized terminals to achieve dependable mechanical retention and electrical continuity. The Partex PXL300-16 features a tubular copper barrel designed to receive a compatible 300 mm² conductor, allowing the cable to be permanently terminated through compression crimping. This makes the terminal suitable for applications where substantial power cables must be connected to electrical distribution equipment, busbars or industrial switchgear.
The M16 ring connection allows the terminated conductor to be secured to compatible bolted electrical connection points. Correct cable preparation, crimping die selection, compression technique and tightening of the bolted connection are essential for reliable performance. The current-carrying capability of the completed connection depends on the conductor, terminal, installation method and connected equipment, rather than the conductor size alone.
Typical Applications
- Industrial power distribution panels and switchboards.
- Low-voltage switchgear and electrical distribution assemblies.
- Busbar connections with compatible M16 fixing points.
- Industrial machinery and large electrical equipment.
- Commercial and industrial building power distribution systems.
- Large copper power cable terminations.
- Electrical equipment manufacturing and switchboard assembly.
- Industrial plant maintenance and replacement cable connections.
- Heavy-duty electrical connections requiring a secure crimped and bolted termination.
