Thomas & Betts 54950BE One-Hole Long Barrel Copper Compression Lug

Description:

The Thomas & Betts 54950BE One-Hole Long Barrel Copper Compression Lug is used to terminate 1/0 AWG copper conductors in power distribution, grounding, and electrical control systems. Commonly installed in switchgear, transformers, substations, motor control centers, utility networks, and industrial electrical equipment, this long-barrel blind-end lug is manufactured from high-conductivity wrought copper with an electro tin-plated finish to provide a reliable, low-resistance electrical connection. Maintenance teams and system integrators use this lug for repair, retrofit, expansion, and replacement of copper conductor terminations.

Applications:

The Thomas & Betts 54950BE is designed for terminating 1/0 AWG copper conductors to busbars, switchgear, transformers, panelboards, grounding systems, and power distribution equipment using a one-hole mounting configuration with a 1/2-inch stud. Its long-barrel blind-end design provides maximum conductor contact for superior crimp performance while ensuring proper conductor insertion depth. The lug is suitable for commercial, industrial, utility, and renewable energy installations operating on systems rated up to 35 kV.
