Schneider Electric LV429228 Frame terminals aluminum 1x25-95 mm 250 A 4 pcs content_copy

The article LV429228 from Schneider Electric is an open cable connector, specifically designed as connection accessory for circuit breakers of the product families ComPacT NSX100, NSX160, NSX250 as well as EasyPacT CVS100, CVS160, CVS250, ComPacT INS100–250 and INV100–250. It is a pre-fabricated aluminium connector designed for direct connection of a cable with a rated current of up to 250 A. The component is available in a set of four units and serves for secure and quick connection of cables to the terminals of the mentioned switches.

Applications
The cable connector LV429228 is used in industrial and commercial electrical installations where a reliable and durable connection between circuit breakers and cables is required. It is particularly suitable for applications where aluminium or copper cables with a cross-section of 25 mm² to 95 mm² need to be connected. The connector is used in switchgear, distributors and other electrical installations where ComPacT and EasyPacT switches are employed.

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The connector is designed as a 4-pole (4P) connection and enables direct snap-fit connection to the terminals of compatible switches. It is designed for use with a single cable per connector. The terminals are screw terminals, with the permissible torque varying according to cable cross-section: 20 Nm for cable cross-sections of 25 to 50 mm² and 26 Nm for cross-sections of 70 to 95 mm². These specific torques ensure a secure and correct connection that withstands mechanical loads and thermal stresses.

Technology Explained Simply
The open cable connector is made of aluminium, a conductor material frequently used in industrial electrical engineering, especially for larger cross-sections, to optimise weight and cost. The pre-fabricated design means the connector is already manufactured and tested, so it can be directly connected to the switch without requiring additional processing steps. The direct snap-fit connection to the switch terminals reduces installation time and minimises error sources during installation.

Compatibility and Accessories
The connector LV429228 is compatible with a wide range of circuit breakers from the ComPacT and EasyPacT series, including models NSX100, NSX160, NSX250, CVS100, CVS160, CVS250, INS100–250 and INV100–250. It can be used with both copper and aluminium cables, increasing its applicability in various installation scenarios.

Installation and Mounting
Mounting is done by simply inserting the connector into the designated terminals of the circuit breakers. The snap-lock function ensures the connector is securely fixed. The cables are then inserted into the screw terminals and tightened to the specified torque (20 Nm or 26 Nm, depending on cross-section). Installation requires no additional tools or components, as the connector is pre-fabricated.

Operational Advantages
The use of the pre-fabricated aluminium connector reduces installation time and minimises the risk of errors during cabling. The direct snap-fit connection to the switch terminals ensures a stable and reliable electrical connection that remains intact under load and temperature fluctuations. Compatibility with various switch models and cable materials increases flexibility in planning and executing electrical installations. The warranty is 18 months, highlighting the product’s reliability.
