Rittal 8800660 EMC Gland Plate - Shielded Cables 20 mm
Part Number: 8800660
Quick Summary
Rittal 8800660 EMC gland plate enables reliable EMC grounding for shielded cables entering TS enclosures. Installers often face difficulties maintaining low-resistance shielding while keeping cabinet access and cable management straightforward. While this accessory does not carry a standard IP protection rating, it aligns with ETIM 9 EC002620 and ECLASS 8.0 27189261 classifications, supporting robust data and parts classification. The solution also complements standard gland plates, delivering improved shielding efficiency in industrial panels. By packaging EMC sealing with a ready-to-install gland plate, it helps reduce installation time and lifecycle costs, while enabling consistent performance across 400 to 800 mm deep TS enclosures. For buyers, this means more predictable outcomes and smoother procurement workflows when equipping automation cabinets with shielded cabling.

FAQs
Begin by confirming enclosure depth compatibility (TS 400, 500, 600, 800 mm) and width (600 mm). Remove the standard gland plate if required, align the TS 8800.660 accessory, and fit the sliding gland plate. Insert the cable into the shielded entry, secure with the cable clamp strip, and install the two EMC seals to establish a low-resistance shield connection. Ensure any existing cabling remains organized and that the kit components are properly seated before re-sealing the enclosure.
The gland plate supports shielded cables with a maximum diameter of 20 mm. It is designed to fit TS enclosures with standard gland plates across 400, 500, 600, and 800 mm depths, providing a consistent EMC entry solution for common control cabinet configurations.
The product notes indicate that standard IP protection is not supported. While CE certification is not listed in the provided data, the gland plate is classified under ETIM 9 (EC002620) and ECLASS 8.0 (27189261). Buyers should verify project-specific IP and CE requirements and plan any additional sealing or measures if full IP rating or compliance is mandatory.
By delivering a low-resistance shield connection and integrated cable fastening, the gland plate reduces EMI-related troubleshooting and rework, shortening commissioning times and boosting system reliability. The zinc-plated steel construction offers durable performance with low maintenance, while the included EMC seals minimize future seal replacement needs in standard cabinet upgrades.
The kit includes a cable clamp strip with hammer-head punching, one sliding gland plate, and two EMC seals, all sized for a 600 mm wide TS enclosure. This complete setup reduces the number of separate parts a technician must source, speeds up installation, and ensures consistent EMC bonding between the shield and gland plate across multiple panels.
