Functional Characteristics
- Application: Special for meter boxes; pin profile fits clamp/screw terminals and meter blocks.
- Bimetal transition: Metallurgically bonded Cu–Al interface for stable contact resistance and thermal cycling durability.
- Pin geometry: Cylindrical/rectangular pin (per size) for high contact pressure and consistent insertion.
- Compression crimp: Crimp barrel sized to conductor cross-section; compatible with hex/dieless crimp dies matched to mm².
- Insulation sheath: Slip-on sleeve included for post-crimp dielectric protection and jacket strain relief.
-
Customization: Logo/length/packaging customizable (is_customized: Yes).
Model Conductor Size AWG (approx.) Recommended Crimp Notes GTLA-10 10 mm² ≈ 8 AWG Hex/dieless die for 10 mm² Short service drops, compact terminals GTLA-16 16 mm² ≈ 6 AWG Hex/dieless die for 16 mm² General meter tails GTLA-25 25 mm² ≈ 4 AWG Hex/dieless die for 25 mm² Higher current service GTLA-35 35 mm² ≈ 2 AWG Hex/dieless die for 35 mm² Consider two-stage compression GTLA-50 50 mm² ≈ 1/0 AWG Hex/dieless die for 50 mm² Heavy service conductors; longer pin Tip: Publishing pin dimensions (Ø / width × length) and barrel I.D./length for each model will increase long-tail SEO (e.g., “GTLA-25 pin 6 mm × 25 mm”).
Installation & Interface Guidance
- Prepare aluminum conductor: strip to length; remove oxide film; apply Al-approved oxide-inhibiting compound if required by site spec.
- Insert conductor fully into barrel; crimp using a calibrated hex or dieless tool with the die that matches the selected mm² size.
- Perform a pull test; verify full compression without strand cut-off.
- Slide the insulation sheath over the crimped barrel to cover exposed metal and provide strain relief.
- Insert the copper pin into the meter box clamp/screw terminal; torque per equipment manufacturer specification.
- Avoid direct Cu/Al contact outside the bonded interface; follow local codes for Cu–Al transitions.
Applications
- Electric meter boxes and meter tails
- Service entrance conductors (Cu–Al transition to copper terminals)
- Panelboard and switchgear clamp-type terminals requiring pin lugs
Technical FAQ
What is the purpose of a copper–aluminum pin terminal?
It allows an aluminum cable to terminate to a copper terminal/meter clamp via a bonded bimetal pin, minimizing galvanic corrosion and thermal rise.
Which GTLA size should I choose?
Match the model (10/16/25/35/50 mm²) to your conductor cross-section. Use the corresponding crimp die for that mm².
Is an insulation sheath included?
Yes. Each GTLA lug includes a slip-on insulation sheath for post-crimp dielectric protection.
