Professional Installation Requirements
- Installation should be performed by a licensed electrical contractor using the manufacturer's specified crimping dies and procedures. The completed connection should comply with applicable wiring rules and be inspected and tested before energisation.
Applications
- Low-voltage power cable reducing joints
- Joining large copper conductors to smaller copper conductors
- Switchboard and distribution equipment wiring
- Cable tails and fly-lead connections
- Commercial, industrial and infrastructure electrical installations
Standards & Compliance
- AS/NZS 4325.1:1995, Compression and mechanical connectors for power cables with copper or aluminium conductors, Part 1: Test methods and requirements. CABAC identifies AS 4325 Part 1 as the applicable connector standard.
