Overview

The ABB Installation Products Type LCN Copper Two-Hole Lug (SKU: LCN10) is engineered for reliable electrical connections in medium-voltage applications up to 35 kV. Constructed from high-conductivity copper, this lug ensures efficient current transfer and minimal power loss. Its long barrel design provides increased surface area for superior crimp strength and mechanical integrity, crucial for maintaining stable connections under load. This lug features a two-hole configuration with a 1/2 inch bolt hole diameter, facilitating secure mounting to busbars, equipment terminals, or other connection points. The tin plating offers enhanced corrosion resistance, extending the service life of the connection, especially in environments prone to moisture or chemical exposure. The distinct pink die color code (Pink) aids in quick identification and proper tooling selection during installation, minimizing errors and ensuring consistent crimp quality. Designed for wire sizes of 1/0 AWG, the LCN10 lug is suitable for a range of power distribution and industrial wiring tasks. Its robust construction and material composition make it a dependable choice for substations, switchgear, motor controls, and other critical electrical infrastructure where connection reliability is paramount. The LCN series designation indicates a standardized design for ease of specification and integration into existing electrical systems. Ensure proper crimping with the recommended die for the pink color code to achieve optimal performance and safety standards.

How to Install Compression Connectors (Lugs and Splices)

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe and proper installation of compression connectors, including preparing the cable, inserting it into the connector, and crimping. Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Disconnect power before beginning installation to avoid risk of shock.

Estimated time: 20m

Tools needed:

Crimping tool with appropriate dies, Wire brush (e.g., ABB WWB1)

Supplies needed:

Compression connector, Electrical cable, Oxide inhibitor (if applicable)

  1. Verify Connector and Cable Compatibility

    Before starting, confirm that the compression connector is compatible with the cable size and material (e.g., aluminum or copper). Refer to product specifications and the Tool and Die Index for proper matching.

  2. Strip Cable Insulation

    Carefully strip the insulation from the end of the cable, ensuring no damage occurs to the cable's strands. The stripped length should allow for full insertion into the connector barrel.

  3. Wire Brush Cable End

    Thoroughly wire brush the stripped end of the cable that will be inserted into the connector. This removes oxides and ensures a good electrical connection. Use a suitable wire brush, such as ABB catalog number WWB1.

  4. Insert Cable into Connector

    Fully insert the prepared cable end into the barrel of the compression connector until it bottoms out. Ensure all strands are contained within the connector.

  5. Crimp the Connector

    Consult the Tool and Die Index to select the correct crimping tool and die combination for your cable size and connector type. 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 crimps uniformly along the barrel.

  6. Clean Excess Oxide Inhibitor

    After crimping, wipe off any excess oxide inhibitor that may have been expelled from the connector during the crimping process.
