FAQs (Click to Expand)
1. What wire size does this lug fit?
It is specifically designed for 3/0 AWG copper conductors, ensuring a tight, efficient fit and maximum conductivity.
2. Why use a dual-hole design?
The dual-hole pattern prevents rotation under torque and provides superior mechanical stability in high-vibration environments.
3. What does the white color code represent?
White is the standard color identification for 3/0 AWG wire size, making circuit and component identification easy and accurate.
4. Can this lug be used outdoors?
Yes. Its tin-plated finish resists oxidation and corrosion, ensuring long-term performance in outdoor and marine conditions.
5. What crimping tool or die should I use?
Use a hydraulic or mechanical compression tool that matches the manufacturer-recommended die index for 3/0 AWG lugs to achieve UL-approved compression.
6. What is the maximum current rating?
The lug supports currents up to 170 A, depending on installation and environmental factors.
7. What is the operating voltage rating?
It is rated for operation up to 35 kV, making it suitable for medium- and high-voltage applications.
8. Does this lug meet UL standards?
Yes. It is UL Recognized, CE Certified, and RoHS Compliant, meeting international electrical safety requirements.
9. How should the wire be prepared before crimping?
Strip the insulation cleanly, remove any oxidation, insert the wire fully into the barrel, and crimp firmly to achieve a gas-tight seal.
10. Is this lug suitable for both AC and DC systems?
Yes. The 3/0 AWG compression lug is compatible with both AC and DC circuits, including battery and solar power systems up to 35 kV.
