Straight Ground Cord with Conical Head 1.7 m, 10 mm Socket to M5 Ring Terminal, No Resistor - Desco 231265

A ground cord at the edge of a mat gets bumped constantly in daily work. The low-profile conical head of this cord offers little to catch on, which keeps the 10 mm socket from coming off the mat stud. At the other end, an M5 ring terminal provides a screwed connection to the ground point.

Key benefits

• Low-profile conical head helps prevent the cord from being knocked off the 10 mm stud.
• High-strength 7-strand tinsel wire conductor for durability under repeated flexing.
• 2.4 mm PVC insulation protects the conductor in everyday shop use.
• No resistor (0 ohms): for connections where the resistor sits elsewhere in the ground path or is not required.

Applications

For connecting bench and floor mats with a 10 mm stud to a ground bus or earth bonding point when a cord without a built-in resistor is specified, for example with EBPs that already have a resistor per connector.

Standards

Under IEC 61340-5-1 (EPA ground cords), ground cords connect groundable points to the EPA ground facility. Where a resistor is used, it belongs close to the groundable point. Check at the planning stage where the resistor sits in the ground path.
