10 Installing Lug
!WARNING: Lug MUST have a 15/16” hole. Confirm lug and hole dimension before installing lug.
A. Clean conductor of any debris. For aluminum conductor, wire brush and
immediately insert lug onto conductor. Slide lug until the conductor is fully
seated within the lug barrel.
B. Rotate lug so that spade is parallel to the contact face of the bus as shown.
C. For Shear Bolt Connectors: Install lug using separate instructions provided
with lug.
For Crimp Connectors: Select correct tool and die using crimp chart supplied
with lug. Crimp lug (min. number indicated in crimp chart) starting just below
knurl line adjacent to pad. Carefully wipe any excess inhibitor from lug and
cable insulation.
