Product Features & Engineering Logic
| Key Area | Feature | Advantage | Benefit |
| Space Optimization | 90-Degree (Right Angle) Tongue design. | Redirects the connection direction immediately after termination, minimizing the required depth behind the mounting panel. | Critical Space Saving: Ideal for tight enclosures, control panels, and racks where cable routing requires an immediate change in direction. |
| Connection Security | Long Barrel Design (1.16 in / 29.5 mm) with 1-1/4 in (31.8 mm) strip length. | Provides a large crimp surface and maximizes the mechanical strength and electrical contact. | Enhanced Durability: Delivers superior vibration resistance and ensures long-term, high-integrity power connection. |
| Critical Environment Ready | UL/CSA Certified and NEBS Level 3 Compliance. | Meets the highest industry standards for resilience against seismic events, heat, and shock (e.g., telecommunications, data centers). | Operational Assurance: Guarantees product performance in mission-critical applications where failure is not an option. |
| Simplified Installation | Inspection window and standardized brown color code (P33 / 10 / 33 die indices). | Allows for visual confirmation of proper wire seating and rapid identification of the required crimping tool. | Error Reduction: Streamlines the termination process, ensuring every connection is certified and minimizes potential installation faults. |
FAQs
Q1: Where is a 90-degree lug most effectively used?
A 90-degree (right angle) lug is essential when working inside confined spaces, such as distribution boxes, crowded control panels, or small junction enclosures, as it allows the cable to exit immediately parallel to the mounting surface, conserving space.
Q2: Does the 90-degree bend compromise the connection strength?
No. The long barrel design (1.16 inches) ensures maximum material contact and crimp surface area, maintaining the full electrical and mechanical integrity required by UL and CSA standards, despite the 90-degree tongue angle.
Q3: What is the correct procedure for wire preparation for this lug?
Due to the long barrel, the 2 AWG wire must be stripped to 1-1/4 inches (31.8 mm). The inspection window must be used to verify that the conductor is fully seated before using the required Brown color code die set (P33, 10, or 33).
Q4: Is this lug compatible with both solid and stranded 2 AWG conductors?
This lug is specifically designed and certified for stranded copper conductors (up to 35 kV). While some lugs may accept solid wire, it is critical to confirm compatibility with the specific UL listing for the best and most reliable connection.
