Ergom KM 150/8 Copper Ring Terminal

The Ergom KM 150/8 copper ring terminal is a professional-grade component engineered for secure and efficient electrical terminations. Designed specifically for 150 mm² copper conductors, this terminal facilitates a robust connection point for power distribution systems, ensuring low contact resistance and long-term mechanical stability in demanding environments.

Advantages

This terminal is manufactured from high-purity copper, which provides excellent electrical conductivity and minimizes energy loss at the connection point. The design ensures a reliable mechanical grip on the conductor, preventing loosening due to vibrations or thermal expansion. Its durable construction makes it an ideal choice for heavy-duty electrical infrastructure where safety and performance are critical requirements.

Suitable for

• Power distribution cabinets and switchgear
• Industrial machinery and equipment wiring
• Renewable energy systems and battery banks
• Large-scale electrical infrastructure projects

When it may not be suitable

This terminal is not intended for use with aluminum conductors, as galvanic corrosion may occur. It is also unsuitable for applications requiring insulation, as this is a non-insulated bare copper terminal.

Key specifications

• Conductor cross-section: 150 mm²
• Stud hole diameter: 8 mm
• Material: High-purity copper
• Type: Ring terminal

How to use

To install the Ergom KM 150/8, strip the insulation from the end of the 150 mm² copper cable to the appropriate length. Insert the conductor fully into the barrel of the terminal. Use a professional hydraulic crimping tool with the correct die set to compress the barrel onto the cable, ensuring a gas-tight connection. Once crimped, secure the terminal to the busbar or contact point using an 8 mm bolt and nut, ensuring the connection is tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the conductor cross-section matches 150 mm² exactly
• Ensure the 8 mm stud size is compatible with your connection point
• Confirm the availability of a suitable hydraulic crimping tool for this size
• Check that the environment is suitable for non-insulated copper components

Usage recommendations

Always use a calibrated hydraulic crimping tool to ensure the integrity of the connection. Avoid using manual pliers, as they cannot provide the necessary force for a 150 mm² conductor.
