- Crimpable with standard Australian and New Zealand tooling
- Unplated copper construction with high electrical conductivity
Professional Installation Requirements
- Installation and crimping should be performed by a suitably qualified electrician using the specified CABAC or compatible tooling and dies. Follow the manufacturer’s crimping instructions and applicable wiring rules, including AS/NZS 3000 where relevant.
Applications
- Joining different-size copper power conductors
- Electrical switchboard and distribution connections
- Reducing joints between large cables and smaller cable tails
- Fly-lead and cable-tail connections
- Industrial, commercial and infrastructure electrical installations
Standards & Compliance
- AS 4325.1 for compression and mechanical connectors for power cables, as specified by the manufacturer
- Installation should comply with AS/NZS 3000 where the link is used in a low-voltage electrical installation
Environmental Benefits
- Copper is highly recyclable at end of service life
- High-conductivity copper supports low-resistance electrical connections and helps minimise avoidable energy losses
- Annealed construction and corrosion-resistant material properties support extended service life and reduced replacement waste
