Overview

The ABB RTL 2 copper lug is a precision-engineered terminal designed for secure, high-conductivity connections in copper conductor applications. Manufactured by ABB Installation Products, this lug features a serrated bottom for enhanced grip on conductors and a flat top for clean, flush mounting. The pad measures 21/32 inch wide by 5/8 inch long by 7/64 inch thick, while the barrel has a diameter of 11/64 inch, ensuring compatibility with standard copper conductors. This lug is ideal for electrical installations requiring reliable, low-resistance connections in industrial, commercial, and utility environments. The serrated bottom design increases surface contact area, reducing the risk of loosening or poor conductivity over time. The flat top surface allows for easy attachment to bus bars or other terminals without protrusion. Unlike drilled lugs, the RTL 2 features no holes in the pad, simplifying installation and reducing potential failure points. Common applications include power distribution panels, motor control centers, and renewable energy systems where copper conductors are standard. The copper construction ensures excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance, critical for long-term performance. The RTL 2 is part of ABB’s trusted RTL series, known for its precision and durability in electrical infrastructure. Key specifications: - Material: Copper (electrolytic or annealed per application needs) - Pad dimensions: 21/32" (W) x 5/8" (L) x 7/64" (T) - Barrel diameter: 11/64" - Connection type: Serrated bottom / Flat top - SKU: RTL 2 - UNSPSC Code: 39121409 For copper conductors requiring a secure, no-drill terminal solution, the ABB RTL 2 delivers consistent performance with minimal installation complexity.
