Ergom KM 240/10 Copper Ring Terminal for 240mm² Cable with 10mm Stud Hole

The Ergom KM 240/10 is a professional-grade copper ring terminal engineered for the secure termination of 240mm² copper conductors. Designed for demanding electrical environments, this terminal features a 10mm stud hole, ensuring a precise fit for standard mounting bolts in power distribution equipment. Its robust construction facilitates excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical stability, making it an essential component for high-current applications where reliability is paramount.

Advantages

This copper ring terminal offers superior electrical performance due to its high-purity copper construction, which minimizes resistance and prevents overheating in heavy-duty circuits. The design provides a permanent and vibration-resistant connection, ensuring long-term operational safety in industrial settings. Its standardized geometry allows for easy installation using professional crimping tools, resulting in a consistent and durable termination that meets rigorous electrical standards.

Suitable for

• Power distribution panels and switchgear
• Industrial machinery and heavy electrical equipment
• Large-scale commercial electrical installations
• Connection of heavy-duty copper cables to busbars or terminal blocks

When it may not be suitable

This terminal is specifically designed for copper conductors and should not be used with aluminum cables to prevent galvanic corrosion. It is also not intended for applications requiring insulation, as this is a non-insulated terminal type.

Key specifications

• Conductor cross-section: 240mm²
• Stud hole diameter: 10mm
• Material: High-conductivity copper
• Connection type: Ring terminal

How to use

To install the terminal, first strip the insulation from the end of the 240mm² 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 for 240mm² terminals to ensure a secure mechanical bond. Once crimped, the terminal can be mounted onto a 10mm stud or bolt and tightened with a suitable nut to ensure a solid electrical contact.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the cross-section of your cable matches the 240mm² specification
• Ensure the mounting stud size is 10mm
• Confirm that your crimping tool is compatible with this terminal size
• Check that the environment is suitable for non-insulated copper connections

Usage recommendations

Always ensure the crimping tool is properly calibrated and that the cable surface is clean before installation to maintain optimal conductivity and prevent connection failure.
