Copper Terminal Lugs by Cembre

Cembre has introduced two new terminals DR-NST into the existing DR-N copper terminal range for high quality and reliable LV & MV electrical connections:

Cembre DR16-10N-NST (Conductor Size 16mm2)
Cembre DR25-10N-NST (Conductor Size 25mm2)

The Cembre DR-N series of cable lugs are manufactured from electrolytic copper tube Cu-OF CW008A conform to UNI EN 13600.

Which are the main features?

  • the annealing process optimizes the structural features of the material allowing an easier crimping and it guarantees the use of the electrical connector even with mechanical solicitations of various nature;
  • the barrel entrance of the lug is chamfered to allow an easier and correct conductor insertion and its length facilitates precise positioning in the crimping tool die;
  • cable lug dimensions are according to DIN 46235

UL listed for US and CANADA per UL486A-486B up to 35kV.

Cable cutting and crimping tools manufactured by Cembre are used to cut or crimp most types of low, medium and high voltage cables including EPR, PILC, XLPE, PVC insulated cables with copper or aluminium conductors, lead sheath, steel wire armour (SWA) or wire braid.

Cembre tools are used for cutting and crimping underground cables or overhead lines to support the installation of LV-HV power cables and conductors into switchgear, substations, transmission and distribution networks – tools are the highest quality for the compression of connectors, lugs and joints in high voltage electrical cable installations in both indoor and outdoor locations from LV up to 33kV.

Cembre HT131-C

Cembre HT131-C Cable Crimping Tool | the industry leading and most extensively used hydraulic crimping tool for the connection and compression of electrical connectors, lugs and splices up to 400sqmm. This new model, self contained, robust and sturdy, will accept all semi-circular slotted dies, common to most 130 kN tools. The Cembre HT131-C tool features a double speed action: a fast advancing speed for rapid approach of the dies to the connector and a slower more powerful speed for crimping. For ease of operation and comfort of the operator the tool head can be fully rotated through 180 degrees. The built-in safety valve will by-pass the oil supply when the maximum pressure is reached, and the pressure release system can easily be operated at any stage of compression.
