Product Information
Full details
The Rittal SV 3454.500 conductor connection clamp is designed for electrical engineers and technicians working with 5mm busbar systems. Its key benefit is providing a secure and reliable connection for large conductor cross-sections (70-185mm²) to busbars, ensuring stable power distribution. A potential consideration is its specific compatibility with 5mm busbars and 22.5x20mm flexibar systems, requiring careful verification before purchase.

FAQs
What is the maximum conductor size this clamp can accommodate?
The Rittal SV 3454.500 clamp can accommodate conductor cross-sections from 70mm² up to 185mm².
What busbar thickness is required for this clamp?
This clamp is designed specifically for busbars with a thickness of 5mm.
What material are these clamps made from?
The clamps are constructed from sheet steel, which is zinc-plated and passivated for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance.
How many clamps are included in one package?
Each package of the Rittal SV 3454.500 contains 15 pieces.
Are these clamps suitable for outdoor use?
While the zinc-plated and passivated finish offers corrosion resistance, prolonged exposure to harsh outdoor elements without additional protection is not recommended. Ensure proper enclosure for outdoor applications.
What is the purpose of the passivation on the sheet steel?
Passivation is a chemical treatment that enhances the corrosion resistance of the steel, providing a protective layer against environmental factors.
Troubleshooting
Clamp does not fit the busbar.
Verify the busbar thickness is exactly 5mm. This clamp is specifically designed for 5mm busbars and will not fit others.
Conductor cannot be securely fastened.
Ensure the conductor's cross-section is within the 70-185mm² range. Check for any obstructions in the clamp opening and ensure proper tightening procedure is followed.
Poor electrical contact or high resistance.
Clean the busbar and the clamp contact surfaces thoroughly. Ensure the clamp is firmly seated on the busbar and the conductor is properly secured.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Provides a secure and reliable connection for large conductor sizes.
- Durable sheet steel construction with zinc-plated and passivated finish for corrosion resistance.
- Designed for compatibility with specific busbar and flexibar systems.
- Supplied in practical bulk packaging of 15 units.
Cons
- Limited to 5mm busbar thickness.
- Requires specific 22.5x20mm flexibar systems for full compatibility.
- Not suitable for smaller conductor cross-sections.
- Material is steel, which may be less conductive than copper in certain niche applications (though typical for clamps).
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the busbar thickness is exactly 5mm.
- Verify compatibility with your flexibar system (22.5x20mm).
- Clean both the busbar surface and the clamp contact area.
- Position the clamp onto the busbar.
- Insert the conductor (70-185mm²) into the clamp opening and secure according to system requirements (typically with a torque screw, not included).
Compatibility:
- Busbar Thickness: 5 mm
- Conductor Cross-Section: 70 mm² - 185 mm²
- Flexibar System: 22.5 x 20 mm
Care:
- Regularly inspect for signs of corrosion or damage.
- Keep connection points clean and free from dust and debris.
- Avoid exposing the clamps to excessive moisture or harsh chemicals.
