Ergom KOR 300/16 Copper Ring Terminal, Tin-Plated

The Ergom KOR 300/16 is a professional-grade copper ring terminal designed to provide secure and efficient electrical connections for heavy-duty applications. Constructed from high-quality copper and finished with a tin-plated coating, this terminal is engineered to maintain optimal electrical conductivity while offering superior protection against oxidation and environmental corrosion. It is specifically designed to accommodate conductors with a cross-section of 300 mm² and features a 16 mm stud hole, making it a reliable choice for demanding electrical infrastructure projects.

Advantages

The primary advantage of this terminal lies in its robust construction, which ensures low contact resistance and long-term stability in power distribution systems. The tin-plated surface significantly enhances durability by preventing corrosion, even in challenging industrial environments. Its precise design allows for a firm and reliable mechanical connection, which is critical for maintaining the integrity of high-current circuits and preventing overheating at termination points.

Suitable for

• Power distribution cabinets and switchgear
• Industrial electrical installations
• Heavy machinery and equipment wiring
• Large-scale electrical infrastructure projects

When it may not be suitable

This terminal is not intended for use with conductors that do not match the specified 300 mm² cross-section, as improper sizing can lead to loose connections and electrical hazards. It is also not suitable for applications requiring specialized materials other than copper, such as aluminum-specific connectors, unless appropriate transition adapters are used.

Key specifications

• Material: Tin-plated copper
• Conductor cross-section: 300 mm²
• Stud hole diameter: 16 mm
• Design: Ring terminal

How to use

To install the Ergom KOR 300/16, first strip the insulation from the end of the 300 mm² conductor to the appropriate length. Insert the conductor fully into the barrel of the terminal. Use a professional-grade hydraulic crimping tool compatible with this terminal size to ensure a secure and permanent mechanical bond between the conductor and the terminal. Once crimped, the terminal can be mounted onto a 16 mm stud and secured with a corresponding nut and washer to complete the electrical connection.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the conductor cross-section matches the 300 mm² specification exactly.
• Verify that the mounting stud size is 16 mm.
• Confirm that you have access to a hydraulic crimping tool capable of handling this terminal size.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure that the crimping tool is properly calibrated and that the correct die set is used for the specific terminal size to guarantee a reliable and safe electrical connection.
