Overview

The ABB Compression Grounding Plate (SKU: 52096) is a copper grid-to-plate connector engineered for secure grounding in industrial and utility applications. This compression grounding plate features a 4-hole pad with 1/2-13 UNC threaded blind holes spaced at 1-3/4 inch centers, designed to accommodate copper cables ranging from 4/0 to 250 kcmil. The 90-degree bend and 5/16-inch thickness provide structural integrity, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments. The grounding plate includes an easy-to-locate protective label covering bolt holes and face plate, simplifying installation and reducing setup time. Compatible with Die 15506 (Code 87H) in the TBM15PF tool, this connector is rated for direct burial in earth or concrete, meeting cULus 467 standards for grounding and bonding. The 4-hole pad measures 3-1/8 x 2-7/8 inches, with an overall length of 4-1/8 inches. Ideal for grounding cross-connects, utility grids, and industrial electrical systems, the ABB 52096 ensures high-strength, low-resistance connections with minimal inventory requirements. The copper construction provides superior conductivity and corrosion resistance, while the threaded blind holes allow for secure fastening to flat surfaces. This product is a cost-effective solution for reducing grounding infrastructure complexity and improving system reliability.
