Joining Copper To Alloy Cables

Featured Replies

"Be aware that to avoid potential problems you need the proper connectors both to join the Cu to the Al and where the Al enters your incoming breaker."

Does anyone have any pics of these joiners?

In this case it is 16mm copper form the meter to 50mm Alloy

Lots of other sizes on this page http://www.electricaldirectltd.co.nz/ecommerce.php?DPT=c&DCI=129

These chaps http://www.metroid.net.au/products2.php do a simpler product (likely cheaper). EDIT They do only seem to do giant sizes mind :(

Just spoke to Metroid in Oz, their quote below:-

10 x BMRL50/16 AU$ 31.50 each

Air bag to Bangkok AU$ 59.00

Probably explains why the locals don't use them :(

Electrical Direct in NZ have also responded to my query:-

Hi Dave

Yes we can. Here is the link to the product on our online store: http://www.electricaldirectltd.co.nz/ecommerce.php?func=14&DCI=129&DPT=p&DPI=1644&

Freight:

NZ Post international air, 3-10 working days, $20

NZ Post intnl economy courier, 2-6 working days, $45

No GST added on items sent to Thailand.

Payment can be by Visa, Mastercard or direct to our account using our swift code.

Total would be $49.60 plus freight for four of them.

If you pay by credit card, the system doesn't automatically charge you when you load your details. We process the payment when we process the order and have added freight to it.

Regards
