[pencilpusher]

Hi

Any recommnedations where to go for brass nuts and bolts in relation to terminating SWA? There are loads of suppliers I know but need good quality M6 brass machine screws for earth continuity and there must be some crap out there?

I pick mine up from CEF, I think they're their own make, CEFIX.

Leaning more toward the earthing nuts now though, particularly when limited for space.

Because in some contracts it specifies they must be brass for better conductivity.

I dont use the banjo earthing tabs any more, but use these instead.

Earthing Nuts - Speed up metal cable gland installation and EMI / RFI screening

They have teeth on one side that cut and grip into the metal work of the enclosure and then a grub screw that locks the nut to the gland.
