Nexans GPH Mechanical Connectors (M Series)

for up to 52kV

Nexans GPH Mechanical Cable Connectors (up to 52kV), with shear-off-head bolts and transverse grooving, offer a reliable and efficient solution. These shear bolt connectors are assembled with multiple shear-off-head bolts, making them ideal for connecting identical or different conductor cross-sections and materials. The connector body is made from high-strength Aluminium Alloy, while the bolts are made from tin-plated brass with an Aluminium Alloy hexagon design. Each connector is filled with compound and sealed in plastic for enhanced protection.

 

Advantages –
• Simple, quick installation- With common commercially available inner and outer hexagon tools or an approved impact wrench.
• Minimum storage costs- The cross-section range from 16 mm² to 1200 mm² is covered by just 4 types of connectors.
• Universal applicability- Shear bolt connectors Can be used for copper and aluminum conductors according to EN 60228 classes 1 & 2. For use of our mechanical connectors with class 5 flexible copper conductors, please contact us.
• Proven quality- Tested for class 2 conductors according to IEC 61238-1-A, in failure-free operation for more than 20 years.
