EATON Busbar Clamp for Copper Busbars 20x5/10/15 mm, 63 A, 1000 V, Grey 2284,00

Connecting conductors to busbars often requires multiple terminal blocks or adapters, leading to complex installations and potential loose connections. This EATON busbar clamp solves that by providing a single, reliable connection point for copper busbars with cross-sections of 20x5 mm, 20x10 mm, or 20x15 mm. Its screw terminal accepts rigid conductors from 1.5 to 16 mm² and flexible conductors from 1.5 to 10 mm², ensuring a secure and vibration-resistant joint. The clamp is rated for 63 A and 1000 V AC/DC, making it suitable for a wide range of power distribution and control applications.

Who is it for

This busbar clamp is ideal for panel builders, electrical installers, and maintenance technicians who work with copper busbar systems in industrial control panels, switchgear, and distribution boards. It is particularly useful when you need to tap power from a busbar to feed branch circuits or connect incoming supply cables without drilling or welding the busbar.

Main features

• Compatible with copper busbars: 20x5 mm, 20x10 mm, and 20x15 mm.

Tips

Ensure the busbar is de-energized before installation. Strip the conductor insulation to the recommended length and tighten the screw to the specified torque (2.5 Nm) to avoid damage or poor contact. For flexible conductors, use ferrules to prevent strand breakage and ensure a reliable connection. The clamp can be installed on any of the three busbar thicknesses; simply position it over the busbar and tighten the clamping screw.
