Thomas & Betts 54852BEUB 90 Degree Long Barrel Lug 6 AWG Two Hole Compression Connector

SKU CH-SNED-EWVFE

Two-hole 90-degree copper compression lug for 6 AWG wire with 1.75 in stud spacing and 35 kV rating

  • Type90 Degree Long Barrel Lug
  • Electro-tin plated copper ensures high conductivity
  • 90 degree angled barrel simplifies tight-space routing
  • Long barrel design provides secure crimp connection
  • Two-hole mounting with 1.75 in spacing prevents rotation
  • UL E9809 and CSA certified for safety compliance

90 Degree Long Barrel Lug 6 AWG

This two-hole compression connector is built for copper conductors up to 6 AWG and provides a secure crimp termination in panel and equipment wiring. The 90-degree angled barrel routes the cable neatly in tight enclosures or against flat surfaces. It suits electricians and maintenance crews who need a reliable, code-compliant lug for power distribution.

Sustained-load behaviour

Electro-tin plated wrought copper resists oxidation and maintains low contact resistance during continuous operation at up to 194 degrees F. The long barrel increases the crimp area, distributing mechanical stress and reducing the chance of conductor fatigue under vibration or thermal cycling. The blue colour code and die code 24 identify the correct crimp tool setting for consistent joints.

Practical limits of the standard

The lug is rated for 35 kV maximum voltage and carries CSA certification plus UL file E9809 for listed installations. Two mounting holes on 1.75 in centres accept 1/4 in studs, fixing the connector firmly to busbars or terminal blocks. It is not suited for conductors larger than 6 AWG, for aluminium wire, or for applications requiring an inspection window in the barrel.

Questions about this item

Does the 90-degree angled barrel generate extra heat when crimped to 6 AWG copper at full 35 kV load?

The electro-tin plated copper lug is rated for a maximum operating temperature of 194 °F, so it handles continuous rated current without overheating.

What crimp die and tool do I need to terminate this connector properly?

Use a die coded 24 that matches the blue colour code for 6 AWG stranded copper to achieve a UL-listed crimp.

Will the two-hole pattern with 1.75 in centre spacing match the bus bars on my existing panel?

The lug has two 1/4 in stud holes spaced 1.75 in apart; verify your bus-bar hole pattern before ordering.
