As in other discussions, more info required, like what type of enclosure, what IP rating do you need.

Personally, if I had 120mm cables, and I assume you have SDI (Single Double Isulated) cables, I would have one gland for each cable. If there is limited room in the enclosure then each gland would align to the stud for the contactor or overload. I would make a glandplate using aluminium or other non ferrous material.

Regards,

Trevor.

GA Tooz,

The other option is to cut between the holes with a jigsaw to break the magnetic circuit if ferrous material must be used.
