Overview

The ABB 60171NT is a high-conductivity aluminum one-hole lug engineered for secure electrical terminations in high-voltage power distribution systems. Designed for 500 kcmil aluminum conductors, this lug features a long barrel and narrow tongue for reliable connections up to 35kV. The electro-tin plated finish ensures corrosion resistance and low contact resistance, critical for long-term performance in harsh industrial environments. The green color-coded cap and barrel marking (Die Code 94H) align with Panduit and competitor die index numbers, simplifying crimp die selection. Pre-filled with oxide-inhibiting compound and capped for immediate installation, the 60171NT protects against corrosion and oxidation. With a 1/2-inch bolt size and overall length of 7.01 inches (178mm), this lug meets stringent quality standards for durability and efficiency in critical power infrastructure. It is rated for 90°C operation when crimped with specified tools and dies. Consult cable manufacturer for voltage stress relief instructions with applications greater than 2000V. The lug is part of ABB's range-taking narrow-tongue single-barrel lug series, designed for 90°C, 600V to 35kV applications with 1.75-inch bolt hole centers.
