Why Choose the Cembre CA50R-2M8 Copper Compression Cable Lug?
The Cembre CA50R-2M8 (2530830) is a heavy-duty two-hole copper compression cable lug designed to provide secure, low-resistance electrical terminations for industrial power distribution and medium-voltage applications. As part of the Cembre CA-2M series, it delivers exceptional electrical conductivity, superior mechanical strength and long-term reliability for demanding electrical installations.
Manufactured from high-purity annealed electrolytic copper with an electrolytic tin-plated finish, the CA50R-2M8 offers outstanding corrosion resistance and crimp performance. The extended barrel improves both electrical and mechanical characteristics, while the closed barrel design without an inspection hole helps prevent moisture ingress, making it suitable for outdoor installations and medium-voltage systems up to 35 kV.
Designed for 50 mm² copper conductors, the terminal features two M8 fixing holes with 44.5 mm centre spacing, providing increased resistance to vibration and electrodynamic forces in switchgear, substations and industrial power systems.
