Overview

The ABB ATL102 Type Aluminum Two-Hole Lug is a high-voltage electrical connector designed for reliable cable termination in medium-voltage systems up to 35 kV. Constructed from durable aluminum with a tin plating for corrosion resistance, this lug accommodates 1/0 stranded wire and features a 1/2-inch bolt hole for secure mechanical fastening. The tan die color code ensures easy identification in multi-conductor installations. This lug is part of ABB’s ATL10 series, optimized for industrial and utility applications where high dielectric strength and low contact resistance are critical. The two-hole design distributes mechanical stress evenly, reducing the risk of conductor pull-out or deformation under load. Its compact footprint and bolt-hole configuration make it ideal for panelboard terminations, switchgear connections, and overhead line splices. Key applications include: - Utility substations and transformer terminations - Industrial motor control centers (MCCs) - Renewable energy systems (wind/solar tie-ins) - Commercial and institutional electrical distribution The ATL102 meets stringent electrical and mechanical standards for medium-voltage systems, ensuring long-term performance in harsh environments. Its aluminum construction provides lightweight durability, while the tin plating enhances conductivity and prevents oxidation. For systems requiring UL 486A-B or IEEE 386 compliance, this lug delivers consistent, code-compliant terminations. SKU: ATL102 | Manufacturer: ABB Installation Products | UNSPSC: 39121405

How to Install Aluminum Compression Lugs and Splices (Type ATL and ASP)

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe and correct installation of aluminum compression lugs and splices (Type ATL and ASP) on stranded, compressed, compact aluminum, and copper conductors.

Tools needed:

Wire brush (e.g., T&B catalog number WWB1), Crimping tool (e.g., BlackBurn, Burndy, Thomas & Betts, Anderson), Crimping dies (specific to wire size and tool), Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Aluminum compression connector (lug or splice, Type ATL or ASP), Aluminum or copper cable (stranded, compressed, or compact), Oxide inhibitor

  1. Turn Off Power

    WARNING ELECTRICAL HAZARD! Before beginning any work, turn off all power to the circuit. Verify the power is off using appropriate lockout/tagout procedures and a multimeter.

  2. Verify Connector and Cable Size

    Check the wire size marked on the aluminum compression connector to ensure it matches the actual cable size you intend to use. Refer to Figure 1 in the documentation.

  3. Strip Cable Insulation

    Carefully strip the insulation from the cable, taking care to avoid damaging the conductor's strands. Refer to Figure 2 in the documentation. Note: For VC6 tool users on ASP connectors 250 MCM and larger, strip an extra 1-5/8 inches of insulation from one end.

  4. Brush Conductor

    Using a wire brush (e.g., T&B catalog number WWB1), thoroughly brush the conductor side that will be inserted into the connector to remove any oxidation. Refer to Figure 3 in the documentation.

  5. Insert Conductor

    Fully insert the prepared conductor into the barrel of the compression connector until it bottoms out. Refer to Figure 4 in the documentation.

  6. Crimp the Connector

    Consult the 'Tool and Die Index' table in the documentation to select the correct tool and die combination for your cable size. Crimp the connector the specified number of times. For splices, make the first crimp just outside the knurl on each side of the center and space subsequent crimps uniformly. For lugs, make the first crimp at the inner end of the barrel and space subsequent crimps uniformly along the barrel.

  7. Clean Excess Oxide Inhibitor

    Wipe off any excess oxide inhibitor that may have been expelled during the crimping process.
