Product Information
Full details
The Rittal SV Push-In Conductor Clamp (3456505) is designed for electricians and installers working with busbar systems in industrial and commercial electrical installations. Its key benefit is providing efficient and secure electrical connections with tool-free installation. A potential consideration is its specific compatibility with 10mm copper busbars (E-Cu or CUPONAL). This clamp securely connects round conductors from 1.5 to 16 mm² to busbars, featuring a durable polyamide construction for quick, tool-free insertion and a maximum current rating of 80A.

Troubleshooting
Conductor not securely held
Ensure the conductor is fully inserted into the push-in mechanism. Check that the conductor size is within the 1.5-16 mm² range. Verify the busbar is the correct size (10mm) and material.
Difficulty inserting conductor
Ensure the conductor end is clean and not deformed. The push-in design should not require excessive force. If resistance is too high, check for obstructions within the clamp or on the conductor.
Clamp does not fit busbar
Confirm that you are using a 10mm thick copper busbar (E-Cu or CUPONAL). This clamp is not compatible with other busbar sizes or materials.
Overheating at connection point
Verify the conductor size and current load do not exceed the clamp's 80A rating. Ensure the connection is fully seated and the busbar is clean. If the issue persists, consult a qualified electrician.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Significantly reduces installation time with tool-free push-in design.
- Accommodates a broad range of conductor sizes (1.5-16 mm²).
- High 80A current rating suitable for many industrial applications.
- Ensures secure and reliable electrical connections.
- Made from durable Polyamide for long-term use.
- Complies with important international safety standards.
Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the busbar is clean and free from debris. The clamp is designed for 10mm E-Cu or CUPONAL copper busbars.
- Prepare the conductor ends. For solid conductors, strip to the appropriate length based on the clamp's internal connection point.
- Push the conductor firmly into the designated slot until it is securely seated. The tool-free mechanism will engage.
- Verify the connection by gently tugging on the conductor.
Compatibility:
- Busbar: Compatible exclusively with 10mm thick copper busbars (E-Cu or CUPONAL).
- Conductors: Suitable for round conductors ranging from 1.5 mm² to 16 mm².
- Standards: Certified to IEC 60 999-1 and IEC 60 947-7-1/-2.
Care:
- This product requires no active maintenance. Ensure the surrounding environment is free from excessive dust and moisture.
- Periodically inspect connections visually to ensure no external damage has occurred to the clamp or conductor insulation.
