Han® GND – the First Connector for Grounding Systems [Sep 2011]

September 26, 2011 10:31 am

Han® GND (Han Ground) is the innovative HARTING solution for potential equalisation. The new connector series makes it possible to execute grounding systems in a pluggable design for the first time. The use of connectors has been well-established in the electrical cabling of machines and systems for many years. 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.
HARTING’s remedy: the Han® GNDThe single-pole connector in the robust IP 65 plastic housing is designed for stranded wires from 10-35 mm² and is optionally available in crimp or axial screw termination. The latter has the advantage that the lines can be connected without a special tool. A simple screwdriver is all it takes to achieve a quick and easy reliable connection. Extra connector mating security can be provided by the use of additional locking elements that prevent unintentional opening.
Advantages• First connector to offer pluggable potential equalisation• Narrow, space-saving design• Economical plastic housing• IP 65• Separate axial screw contacts that are connected direct to the stranded wire without special tools
