2046240 Cembre RP-U4/2 FORK TERMINAL

Why Choose the Cembre 2046240 RP-U4/2 Insulated Fork Terminal?

The Cembre 2046240, also identified as RP-U4/2, is a professional pre-insulated fork terminal designed for secure termination of stranded copper conductors in electrical panels, machinery, control systems and industrial installations. Part of the Cembre P range of pre-insulated terminals, it combines a crimp connection with an open fork design for convenient connection to compatible screw and stud terminals.

Designed for conductors from 0.25–1.5 mm², the 2046240 features red halogen-free polycarbonate insulation and a terminal body manufactured from electrolytic copper with tin plating. The unique funnel-shaped entry of the insulation sleeve helps guide conductor strands fully into the terminal barrel, supporting a secure and reliable electrical and mechanical connection.

With a 4 mm connection size, 7.5 mm palm width and overall length of 21.3 mm, the Cembre RP-U4/2 is particularly suitable for control panels, switchgear, machine wiring and other applications requiring dependable termination of small stranded copper conductors. The open fork configuration allows convenient attachment to compatible screw terminals.
