Why Choose the Cembre 2489555 BSCL4/0 Colour-Coded Butt Splice?
The Cembre 2489555, also identified as the BSCL4/0, is a premium colour-coded long-barrel butt splice connector designed for permanently joining 110 mm² copper conductors in industrial, commercial and utility electrical installations. As part of the trusted Cembre BSCL series, this non-insulated compression connector provides outstanding electrical conductivity, exceptional mechanical strength and long-term reliability.
Manufactured from annealed electrolytic copper with a purity greater than 99.95% and finished with electrolytic tin plating, the BSCL4/0 offers outstanding corrosion resistance while maintaining a low-resistance electrical connection. Its extended long-barrel design increases the crimping area, helping create secure, durable cable joints when installed using compatible Cembre compression tooling.
Designed for 110 mm² copper conductors, the connector incorporates tapered conductor entries at both ends together with an integrated central conductor stop for accurate conductor positioning before crimping. The purple colour coding enables rapid identification of the correct connector size and matching compression die.
