use Google or Bing and search for "terminal blocks for 150mm2 cable on each phase"

Lots of hits.

If the cable is 150 sq.mm, I would rather have a bus bar link with a mounting hole and the two cable lugs will be placed one on either side of this link (front and back). But, ensure that the link is appropriately sized too.

Or else one can go for a suitbaly sized Stud-Type Terminal Block.
