Grounding Hardware Rittal 2569.000, earthing strap M8–M8, cross-section 25 mm², length 300 mm, yellow

Rittal 2569.000 grounding hardware in yellow is a pre‑assembled earthing strap designed to provide a reliable grounding connection with secure metallic contact. The product is length‑optimised and supplied ready to install, simplifying earthing work for electrical enclosures and panels. It features ring terminals sized to fit common earthing screws and a compact, visible yellow finish for easy identification.

Advantages

The grounding strap offers dependable conductivity through its metal ring terminals and a construction that ensures stable contact between grounding points. Its pre‑assembled form and optimised length reduce installation time and the risk of assembly errors. The yellow colour improves visibility inside switchgear and control cabinets, aiding maintenance and inspection.

Suitable for

• Earthing connections between metal enclosures and building ground
• Grounding points inside electrical cabinets and distribution panels
• Retrofit and service jobs where a ready‑to‑install strap speeds up work

When it may not be suitable

This grounding strap is intended for standard electrical grounding tasks; it may not be suitable where specialised high‑current busbars, insulated bonding conductors, or bespoke mechanical fixation methods are required. For applications needing non‑standard lengths or different terminal types, a custom solution may be necessary.

Key specifications

• Length: 300 mm
• Cross‑sectional area: 25 mm²
• Ring terminal sizes: suitable for M6 and M8 earthing screws
• Weight: 460 g
• Colour: yellow

How to use

Position the strap so each ring terminal sits over the corresponding earthing screw on the components to be bonded. Secure the terminals with the appropriate screws or bolts tightened to the manufacturer’s torque recommendations to ensure a low‑resistance connection. Route the strap to avoid sharp edges and moving parts; if needed, use protective grommets or cable ties to prevent chafing.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 300 mm length and 25 mm² cross‑section meet your grounding distance and current capacity requirements
• Confirm the ring terminal compatibility with your earthing screw sizes (M6 and M8)
• Check whether the yellow colour and pre‑assembled format suit your installation and identification preferences

Usage recommendations

Ensure all contact surfaces are clean and free of paint, oxidation or dirt before fastening the ring terminals. Use proper torque on M6/M8 fasteners and inspect connections periodically for corrosion and tightness to maintain reliable earthing.
