The wire end ferrule type 4706 from Klauke is an insulated end ferrule for fine- and extra-fine stranded conductors, particularly for cables according to DIN EN 60228 class 5 and 6. It ensures a secure and durable connection of cable conductors at electrical connection points, with the insulation enabling direct, splice-free insertion of the cable. The construction with Easy-Entry insulation facilitates installation, as the cable can be inserted into the ferrule without additional tools or splicing. The ferrule is halogen-free and thus suitable for applications where the release of toxic or corrosive gases in the event of fire must be avoided. The temperature resistance up to 105 °C makes it suitable for use in environments with increased thermal loads, such as in industrial or stationary electrical installations.

Applications

The wire end ferrule 4706 is used in electrical installations where fine- and extra-fine stranded conductors are processed, particularly in systems with high requirements for safety and environmental compatibility. It is suitable for use in indoor and outdoor installations, provided the ambient conditions do not exceed the temperature resistance of 105 °C. The dimensions and colour coding comply with DIN 46228 part 4, ensuring uniform and clear identification in electrical system construction. The CSA listing confirms approval for use in Canada and underscores compliance with international safety standards.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The ferrule has a total length of 12 mm and is specifically designed for cross-sections from 0.75 mm² to 6 mm². The Easy-Entry insulation enables quick and error-free installation, as the cable can be directly inserted into the ferrule without requiring an additional insulating sleeve or splicing. The insulation is halogen-free, meaning no toxic or corrosive gases are released in the event of fire. The metallic connection is made via a galvanised zinc-plated copper ferrule, which provides good electrical conductivity and corrosion protection.

Technology Explained Simply

The wire end ferrule consists of a metallic core made of galvanised zinc-plated copper, ensuring a secure electrical connection. The insulation surrounds the metallic core and protects against short circuits and contact. The Easy-Entry technology allows the cable to be directly inserted into the ferrule, reducing installation time and error susceptibility. The temperature resistance up to 105 °C enables use in environments with increased heat loads, such as near electrical devices or in enclosed enclosures. The dimensions and colour coding according to DIN 46228 part 4 ensure uniform identification, which is standardised in electrical system construction.

The ferrule is designed for use in electrical installations where a secure and durable connection of fine- and extra-fine stranded conductors is required. The CSA listing confirms approval for use in Canada and underscores compliance with international safety standards. The ferrule is available in a pack of 1000 pieces, making it suitable for large projects and series installations.

Compatibility and Accessories

The wire end ferrule 4706 is designed for cable cross-sections from 0.75 mm² to 6 mm² and is compatible with fine- and extra-fine stranded conductors according to DIN EN 60228 class 5 and 6. The colour coding complies with DIN 46228 part 4, enabling uniform identification in electrical system construction. The CSA listing confirms approval for use in Canada.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is performed by directly inserting the cable into the Easy-Entry insulation of the ferrule. No additional insulating sleeve or splicing is required. The ferrule is then inserted into the corresponding socket or connection point using suitable tools, such as a cable cutter or pliers. The connection is electrically and mechanically stable after installation. The installation requires no additional tools, thereby increasing work speed.

Operational Advantages

The wire end ferrule 4706 provides a secure and durable connection for fine- and extra-fine stranded conductors. The Easy-Entry insulation enables quick and error-free installation, reducing working time. The halogen-free insulation increases safety in the event of fire, as no toxic gases are released. The temperature resistance up to 105 °C extends the range of applications to environments with increased heat loads. The dimensions and colour coding according to DIN 46228 part 4 ensure uniform identification, which is standardised in electrical system construction. The CSA listing confirms approval for use in Canada and underscores compliance with international safety standards. The ferrule is available in a pack of 1000 pieces, making it suitable for large projects and series installations.
