Why Choose the Cembre 2489575 BSCL400 Colour-Coded Butt Splice?
The Cembre 2489575, also identified as the BSCL400, is a heavy-duty colour-coded long-barrel butt splice connector designed for permanently joining 200 mm² copper conductors in industrial, commercial and utility electrical installations. As part of the trusted Cembre BSCL series, this non-insulated compression connector provides exceptional electrical conductivity, outstanding mechanical strength and dependable long-term performance.
Manufactured from annealed electrolytic copper with a purity greater than 99.95% and finished with electrolytic tin plating, the BSCL400 offers excellent corrosion resistance while maintaining a low-resistance electrical connection. Its extended long-barrel construction provides a generous crimping area, helping create secure and durable cable joints when installed using compatible Cembre compression tooling.
Designed for 200 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 blue colour coding enables rapid identification of the correct connector size and matching compression die.
