Harting Han Ground connector series

21 September, 2011 by

Han Ground is a connector series that makes it possible to execute grounding systems in a pluggable design. The advantage is quick and error-free commissioning. Potential equalisation lines are still being permanently connected, however, which is relatively time-consuming and can be subject to errors. The latest single-pole connectors, in an IP 65 plastic housing, are designed for stranded wires from 10-35 mm2 and are optionally available in crimp or axial screw termination.
