| Comparison parameter | Ergom H 16/18 wire ferrule pack of 100 | Ergom H 16/18 500 pcs | Ergom HI 16/18 F 16 mm² | Ergom H 4 x 15mm | Ergom H 1/10 1000 pcs | Ergom H 35/18 100 pcs | Practical conclusion |
|---|
| Product type | Uninsulated wire ferrule | Uninsulated wire ferrule | Insulated wire ferrule | Insulated wire ferrule | Uninsulated wire ferrule | Insulated wire ferrule | Core functions are similar across all models, but the presence of insulation in some alternatives improves connection safety. |
| Conductor cross-section | 16 mm² | 16 mm² | 16 mm² | 4 mm² | 1 mm² | 35 mm² | Different models are designed for strictly specific conductor sizes, so selection depends on cable thickness. |
| Package quantity | 100 pcs | 500 pcs | 100 pcs | 100 pcs | 1000 pcs | 100 pcs | Larger packages are cost-effective for large projects, while 100-piece packs are convenient for minor repairs and one-off tasks. |
◎ The suitability table below evaluates various usage scenarios and buyer needs to determine which specific model of ferrules is best suited for particular electrical installation tasks.
| Usage scenario | Recommended product | Why |
|---|
| Standard electrical installation for 16 mm² cables (small volume of work) | Ergom H 16/18 wire ferrule pack of 100 | Optimal package size for one-off installation tasks and switchboard maintenance. |
| Large-scale electrical installation work with 16 mm² cable | Ergom H 16/18 wire ferrule 500 pcs E08KH-01010104300 | High quantity per pack is suitable for regular work in industrial environments. |
| Installation with increased conductor insulation requirements (16 mm²) | Ergom Insulated Wire Ferrule HI 16/18 F 16 mm² 100 pcs | The presence of insulation provides extra protection against short circuits and accidental contact. |
| Working with smaller cross-section wires (4 mm² or 1 mm²) | Ergom Wire Ferrule H 4 x 15mm ERHN / Ergom H 1/10 | Designed for thinner wires used in low-voltage systems and compact switchboards. |
| Installation of large cross-section power cables (35 mm²) | Ergom Insulated Wire Ferrule H 35/18 100 pcs | Designed for power lines carrying high current loads. |
The product Ergom H 16/18 wire ferrule pack of 100 is a balanced solution for standard electrical installations using 16 mm² cables in moderate quantities. The main difference from alternatives lies in the combination of an optimal package size for smaller tasks and a precise fit for the specific conductor cross-section. This option is best suited for professionals who do not require industrial bulk packaging of 500 or 1000 pieces and do not need additional plastic insulation.
