Hi,

A 3 phase cable with 240 mm2 cross section for each of the phases is required to connect to a 160 A circuit breaker.

The cable is too large (2.2 x the cross section of AWG 0000 (4/0)), and the terminals on the circuit breaker do not fit.

What accessories would be a good 100% legit (not ad-hoc fix) to make this connection?
 
Pin terminals. Several manufacturers are producing these.


 
Thanks we decided to use Flexible Busbars.
