Connecting Type GI12 Electrical rail contact tapped for vibration-resistant M12 screw fixing and cable lug, for return currents, mast grounding, signal circuits etc. Connecting Type EA10 Electrical rail contact with reusable and vibration-proof M10 nut and cable lug for return currents, mast grounding, signal circuits etc.Advantages: Fast and easy cable fitting, larger contact area.

Connecting Types of Contact Clamps and Part numbers:

Clamps for most European railways are given the type ‘C’ prefix

According to customer’s requirements Bance contact clamps will be either delivered with heads and springs for clamping cables and wires directly (connecting types E2, E3, E4 & E5). Or they are delivered with tapped threads or studs for cable fastenings by means of cable lugs (connecting types GI, EA, EI).

For example, a European type GI Clamp with a M12 thread would be code: C/GI12
