Overview

The ABB ASL 500 NK is a two-hole NEMA lug kit designed for terminating large aluminum and copper conductors. This kit includes both a standard two-hole NEMA lug (AL 500 N) and a stacking two-hole NEMA lug (ASL 500 N), providing flexibility for multiple conductor terminations in a single assembly. The lugs are rated for wire sizes from 477 to 500 kcmil, with compatibility for compact 500-600 kcmil AL-CU, ACSR 397.5 (26/7), and ACSR 477 (18/1) conductors. Installation is simplified with compatible dies (106A, 300, 317, 1 5/16, 15A) for crimping applications. NEMA lugs are critical for secure, low-resistance connections in electrical distribution systems, ensuring reliable current transfer and mechanical strength. The ASL 500 NK kit supports high-current applications where multiple conductors must be terminated efficiently. The aluminum construction ensures lightweight durability while maintaining conductivity, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. The two-hole design allows for parallel conductor connections, reducing the need for additional hardware and simplifying wiring configurations.
