Helukabel Grounding Braid 16mm2 300mm with 8.5mm Terminals

The Helukabel grounding braid is a high-quality electrical component designed for reliable grounding and potential equalization in various industrial applications. Featuring a 16mm2 cross-section and a 300mm length, this flexible copper braid provides a low-resistance path for electrical currents, ensuring safety and stability in complex electrical systems. The braid comes pre-fitted with 8.5mm diameter terminals on both ends, facilitating a secure and efficient installation process.

Advantages

This grounding braid offers exceptional flexibility, allowing for easy routing in tight spaces within control cabinets and machinery. The use of high-grade copper ensures excellent conductivity and long-term durability, even in environments subject to vibration or mechanical stress. By providing a stable connection, it effectively minimizes electromagnetic interference and ensures consistent electrical potential across connected components.

Suitable for

• Industrial electrical systems
• Control cabinet grounding
• Machinery and equipment bonding
• Potential equalization in electrical installations

When it may not be suitable

This product is not intended for high-voltage power transmission or applications requiring extreme chemical resistance beyond standard industrial conditions. It should not be used in environments where the specific terminal size of 8.5mm is incompatible with the mounting studs or bolts provided in the existing infrastructure.

Key specifications

• Cross-section: 16mm2
• Length: 300mm
• Terminal diameter: 8.5mm
• Material: Copper

How to use

To install the grounding braid, ensure that the mounting surfaces are clean and free of paint or oxidation to guarantee a low-resistance contact. Align the 8.5mm terminals with the corresponding grounding points on your equipment or cabinet frame. Secure the terminals firmly using appropriate bolts and washers, ensuring that the connection is tight to prevent loosening due to vibration. Verify the continuity of the connection using a multimeter if necessary.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 8.5mm terminal size matches your mounting hardware.
• Ensure the 300mm length is sufficient for the distance between your grounding points.
• Check that the 16mm2 cross-section meets the current-carrying requirements of your specific application.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, always ensure that the contact surfaces are properly prepared and that the connection is protected against corrosion if the equipment is located in a humid or harsh environment.
