Quick Summary
Rittal 9686740 clamping plate securely fastens laminated copper bars to busbar systems. Many engineers struggle with reliable contact quality and lengthy assembly when configuring copper busbar layouts, which can cause voltage drops and maintenance downtime. This part aligns with ETIM EC002270 and ECLASS 8.0 27409221 classifications, while the stainless steel clamp and silver-plated copper infill ensure durable, low-resistance connections. Note that connecting to the busbar system requires the 9686.750 connection plate. With a 100 × 20 mm clamping area, it accommodates standard laminated copper bars and ships as a single piece per pack, supporting manufacturing efficiency and standardized procurement across panel builds.

FAQs
Yes, the 9686740 is designed to fasten laminated copper bars within Rittal busbar systems. For complete connectivity, the connection plate 9686.750 is typically required to join the clamping plate to the busbar structure. This ensures a secure electrical and mechanical connection, reducing the risk of loosening under vibration and temperature changes in control panels.
Key specifications include a stainless steel clamping plate with a silver-plated E-Cu infill, a clamping area of 100 × 20 mm, and packaging as 1 piece per pack. The GTIN is 4028177981379, and it carries ETIM EC002270 and ECLASS 27409221 classifications. These details support reliable contact, corrosion resistance, and straightforward procurement in engineered electrical installations.
The 9686.750 connection plate is typically required to complete the connection to the busbar system. Without it, the laminated copper bars may not achieve the intended mechanical stability and electrical contact. For compliant assemblies and optimal performance, use the clamping plate together with the appropriate connection plate as specified by the panel design.
This clamping plate excels in power distribution panels and control cabinets that use laminated copper bars. It provides secure mounting, low-resistance connections, and reliable steel-to-copper contact in environments with vibration and heat. Its 100 × 20 mm clamping area accommodates standard bar dimensions, making it a practical choice for modular, scalable installations.
The combination of stainless steel clamping and silver-plated copper infill reduces contact resistance and enhances durability, leading to fewer maintenance interventions and lower downtime. Its compatibility with common busbar configurations simplifies stock management and procurement, delivering predictable total cost of ownership and faster, safer panel assembly for repetitive manufacturing applications.
