Harting Han GND pluggable ground connector

Harting has released the Han GND (Han-Ground) connector, designed to make it possible to execute grounding systems in a pluggable design for the first time.

The use of connectors has been well established in the electrical cabling of machines and systems for many years. The advantage is quick and error-free commissioning. Potential equalisation lines are still being permanently connected, however, which is relatively time-consuming and can be subject to errors. Harting’s Han GND is a single-pole connector in a robust IP65 plastic housing that is designed for stranded wires from 10-35 mm² and is optionally available in crimp or axial screw termination. The latter has the advantage that the lines can be connected without a special tool. A simple screwdriver is all it takes to achieve a quick and easy, reliable connection. Extra connector mating security can be provided by the use of additional locking elements that prevent unintentional opening.
