Overview

NSI Industries AL1000N is a high-conductivity aluminum compression lug engineered for 1000 MCM conductors, featuring a 2-hole standard barrel configuration with a 1/2" bolt size. Manufactured from 6061T-6 aluminum alloy with electro-tin plating, this lug delivers low contact resistance and superior corrosion protection in harsh environments. The center stop design ensures proper cable insertion depth, preventing over-insertion and maintaining optimal electrical performance. Color-coded and die-index markings simplify crimp tool selection and installation, reducing the risk of misapplication. Listed for a maximum of 35kV when properly installed to cable manufacturer specifications, the AL1000N meets UL 486A/B standards and is rated for 600V (2000V max per UL486B) with a temperature rating of 90°C. It is compatible with both copper and aluminum conductors, making it a versatile solution for power distribution, panelboard connections, and industrial wiring applications. The NEMA-standard mounting hole spacing ensures compatibility with standard hardware, while the 1/2" bolt size accommodates common mounting configurations. For applications exceeding 2000V, NSI Industries advises following cable manufacturer voltage stress relief instructions to maintain safety and performance. Recommended crimp tools include the NSI N1240 or N121D, which are designed to produce consistent, reliable crimps. The AL1000N is packaged in standard quantities of 24 units per carton for efficient inventory management and distribution.
