  • Color MappingOrange
  • TypeElectrical Connectors
  • CSA certified and UL listed for code-compliant installations
  • Orange colour code and die code 50 simplify correct crimp selection
  • Tin-plated copper barrel resists corrosion in harsh environments
  • Inspection window allows visual verification of full conductor insertion
  • Rated to 35 kV for medium-voltage copper connections

One-Hole Compression Lug 3/0 AWG

This copper compression lug accepts stranded copper wire up to 3/0 AWG and terminates on a 1/4 in stud. The straight-barrel design features an inspection hole and a tongue width of .7 in. It is rated for 35 kV maximum voltage and carries CSA certification plus UL E9809 listing.

Replaces worn or undersized lugs on heavy-gauge

Upgrade when existing connectors show corrosion, heat damage or loose crimps on 3/0 AWG conductors. The jump is worth it if the current lug lacks an inspection window or is not rated to 35 kV. The orange color code and die code 50 match standard tooling for consistent crimps.

Tin-plated copper barrel resists oxidation under

The .63 in barrel outside diameter provides ample contact area for sustained current without hot spots. Inspection hole lets crews verify full conductor insertion before energising. Straight tongue keeps alignment true during vibration, maintaining low resistance over long service life.

Questions about this item

Will the 0.63 in barrel OD and 1/4 in stud fit my bus-bar hole spacing?

The lug has a 0.63 in barrel outside diameter, a straight tongue 0.7 in wide, and a single 1/4 in stud hole; measure your bus-bar slot and bolt pattern against those dimensions.

What crimp die and inspection step are required for a 3/0 AWG copper conductor?

Use a die coded 50 for 3/0 AWG stranded copper; after crimping, verify the conductor is fully seated through the inspection hole before torquing the 1/4 in stud bolt.

How often should the tin-plated copper barrel be inspected or replaced in a 35 kV service?

Inspect the tin-plated copper lug for discoloration, corrosion or loose hardware at each scheduled outage; replace it if the barrel shows pitting, cracking or the inspection hole reveals conductor creep.
