Ergom KM 120/16 Copper Ring Terminal

The Ergom KM 120/16 copper ring terminal is a professional-grade electrical component designed to provide secure and efficient cable terminations. Constructed from high-quality copper, this terminal is engineered to maintain excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical stability in demanding environments. It is specifically designed to accommodate a 120 mm² cable cross-section and features a 16 mm stud hole, making it a reliable choice for heavy-duty electrical infrastructure.

Advantages

The primary advantage of the Ergom KM 120/16 is its robust construction, which ensures long-term durability and resistance to mechanical stress. By utilizing high-purity copper, the terminal minimizes electrical resistance, thereby reducing heat generation at the connection point. Its precise design facilitates a consistent and reliable contact surface, which is critical for maintaining the integrity of power distribution systems and preventing connection failures over time.

Suitable for

• Industrial power distribution systems
• Heavy-duty electrical wiring projects
• Switchgear and control panel assemblies
• Grounding and earthing applications
• Large-scale electrical infrastructure installations

When it may not be suitable

This terminal is not suitable for cables with a cross-section other than 120 mm², as an improper fit will compromise the safety and conductivity of the connection. Additionally, it should not be used in environments where the stud size significantly deviates from the 16 mm specification, as this prevents proper mounting and mechanical security.

Key specifications

• Material: High-quality copper
• Cable cross-section: 120 mm²
• Stud hole diameter: 16 mm
• Type: Ring terminal

How to use

To install the Ergom KM 120/16, first strip the insulation from the end of the 120 mm² cable to the appropriate length. Insert the conductor into the barrel of the terminal, ensuring it is fully seated. Use a professional-grade hydraulic crimping tool compatible with this terminal size to perform a secure crimp. Once crimped, the terminal can be mounted onto the corresponding 16 mm stud and fastened firmly with a nut to ensure a stable electrical connection.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your cable cross-section is exactly 120 mm².
• Ensure the mounting stud diameter is 16 mm.
• Confirm that you have access to a hydraulic crimping tool suitable for this terminal size.
• Check the environmental conditions to ensure copper is appropriate for the installation site.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure that the crimping tool is properly calibrated for the specific terminal size to achieve a gas-tight connection. Regularly inspect the connection point for signs of oxidation or loosening, especially in high-vibration environments.
