Industrial 60278 2 Hole Long Barrel Blind End Compression Lug

Description:

The Thomas & Betts 60278 Two-Hole Long Barrel Aluminum Compression Lug is used to terminate 750 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors in power distribution, grounding, and electrical control systems. Commonly installed in switchgear, transformers, substations, panelboards, utility distribution equipment, and industrial electrical installations, this long-barrel blind-end lug is manufactured from electrolytic tin-plated wrought aluminum to provide a reliable, low-resistance electrical connection. Maintenance teams and system integrators use this part for repair, retrofit, expansion, and replacement of aluminum and copper conductor terminations.

Applications:

The Thomas & Betts 60278 is designed for terminating 750 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors to busbars, switchgear, transformers, panelboards, motor control centers, and grounding systems using a two-hole mounting configuration with 1/2-inch studs spaced 1-3/4 inches apart. Its long-barrel blind-end design provides superior conductor contact and crimp reliability, while the Color-Keyed® compression system utilizes the Yellow 115H die for accurate die selection and consistent installations. The connector is factory-filled with oxide-inhibiting compound and is suitable for commercial, industrial, utility, and renewable energy applications operating on systems rated up to 35 kV.
