Electrical enclosure mounting bracket Rittal 9686.529 — copper, bronze color, length 180 mm

Rittal 9686.529 is a copper mounting bracket in a bronze finish designed for secure attachment and busbar connections inside electrical enclosures and control cabinets. With a length of 180 mm and a solid copper construction, this accessory provides conductive and mechanical connection points for protective earth (PE) and combined PE/PEN applications in industrial and commercial electrical installations. The product supports type-tested configurations in accordance with IEC 61439-1 when used as part of the PE/PEN combination that includes a busbar, angle bracket and baying bracket.

Advantages

The bracket's copper material ensures good electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance appropriate for grounding and earthing connections. Its bronze-coloured finish provides a uniform appearance inside control cabinets and helps resist surface oxidation. At 180 mm length and approximately 510 g weight, the component offers a stable mounting solution that is easy to handle during assembly. Compatibility with type-tested PE/PEN arrangements to IEC 61439-1 adds clarity for designers and installers regarding system compliance when used as intended.

Suitable for

• Mounting and busbar connections inside industrial control cabinets and electrical enclosures
• Protective earth (PE) and combined PE/PEN earthing systems
• Commercial electrical installations requiring a compact copper busbar support
• Panels and switchgear assemblies where compliance with IEC 61439-1 is required as part of a type-tested arrangement

Когда может быть неподходящим

The bracket is not intended for load-bearing mechanical supports beyond its specified mounting function; it should not be used as a structural support for heavy equipment. It may be inappropriate where non-copper materials are required for specific corrosion environments (for example, certain chemical exposures) or where an insulated or coated busbar support is needed for electrical isolation.

Key specifications

• Material: copper
• Finish: bronze colour
• Length: 180 mm
• Typical weight: 510 g
• Application: mounting bracket for busbar and PE/PEN connections inside enclosures
• Standards: supports type-tested PE/PEN configurations to IEC 61439-1 when used with the matching busbar, angle bracket and baying bracket

How to use

Install the Rittal copper bracket onto the enclosure interior at the designated mounting points, aligning it with the corresponding busbar and baying bracket. Secure with appropriate fasteners and torque according to panel manufacturer instructions. Use the bracket as part of the PE/PEN combination together with the specified busbar and angle bracket to achieve the intended earthing arrangement and to maintain the type-tested configuration to IEC 61439-1. Ensure all connections are clean, tight and free of insulating coatings at contact surfaces to maintain electrical continuity.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify compatibility with your enclosure mounting dimensions and the busbar system in use
• Confirm that copper material and a bronze finish are suitable for the installation environment
• Ensure the 180 mm length and mechanical strength meet your layout and load requirements
• Check that the product will be used within a type-tested PE/PEN configuration if IEC 61439-1 compliance is required

Usage recommendations

Use the bracket together with the matching Rittal busbar, angle bracket and baying bracket as intended for PE/PEN arrangements; inspect connections periodically for corrosion or looseness and follow enclosure manufacturer guidelines for fastening torque and earthing practices.
