Overview

NSI Industries AL600N 2Hole Standard Barrel Aluminum Compression Lug is a high-conductivity aluminum connector engineered for 600 MCM copper or aluminum conductors. Manufactured from high conductivity aluminum tubing, this aluminum compression connector is designed for reliable performance. The AL600N features a standard barrel configuration and is a 2-hole lug, providing secure mounting options. It is constructed from 6061T-6 aluminum alloy, ensuring robust mechanical strength and excellent conductivity. The connector is electro-tin plated, which provides essential corrosion resistance and contributes to low contact resistance for efficient electrical transfer. This tin plating also enhances the longevity of the connection in demanding environments. The design of the AL600N incorporates a center stop, a critical feature that assures proper cable installation by ensuring the conductor is inserted to the correct depth within the barrel. This prevents improper crimping and potential connection failures. For ease of identification and selection, the lugs are marked with a die index and are color-coded. These markings simplify the process of choosing the correct crimp tool, leading to efficient and accurate installations. The AL600N is listed for 35KV maximum when properly installed, making it suitable for high-voltage applications. It is compatible with 1/2" bolts for secure mechanical fastening. The AL600N is rated for 600V maximum, with a specific mention of 2000V per UL486B, and operates at a maximum temperature of 90°C. This dual-hole lug is ideal for power distribution, panelboard connections, and high-voltage cable terminations where durable, corrosion-resistant aluminum connectors are required.

How to Install Aluminum Compression Connectors

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing aluminum compression connectors, ensuring a secure and reliable electrical connection.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Crimping tool, Wire brush

Supplies needed:

Aluminum compression connectors, Cable

  1. Select the appropriate connector

    Choose the correct lug or splice connector based on the size of the cable being installed, ensuring it matches the specifications in the provided chart.

  2. Strip the cable insulation

    Carefully strip the insulation from the conductor without nicking the strands, leaving enough length to fully insert the stripped conductor into the connector barrel.

  3. Clean the conductor

    Use a wire brush to clean the stripped portion of the conductor, removing any oxide films to ensure a good electrical connection.

  4. Insert the conductor into the connector

    Insert the cleaned and stripped conductor completely into the connector barrel, ensuring it fills the barrel completely.

  5. Crimp the connector

    Using the appropriate crimping tool, crimp the connector according to the manufacturer's specifications, ensuring the number of crimps is per side for a splice connector.

  6. Verify the connection

    Inspect the crimped connection to ensure it is secure and that there are no visible gaps or loose strands.
