Overview

The Panduit LCC8-10AW-L Tin-Plated Copper Compression Lug is a two-hole, long-barrel compression lug engineered for high-reliability electrical terminations in industrial, commercial, and utility applications. Designed for #8 AWG and #10 AWG stranded copper conductors, this lug features a long barrel that maximizes crimp points, delivering superior wire pull-out strength and long-term performance. The generously beveled wire entry prevents conductor strand damage during installation, reducing rework and downtime. Color-coded barrels are marked with Panduit and competitor die index numbers (P21, Burndy 49, T&B 21) for precise crimp die selection, ensuring compatibility with industry-standard tooling. The tin-plated copper construction inhibits corrosion, while the enclosed barrel design prevents corrosive materials from entering in harsh environments. UL Listed and CSA Certified to 35kV with a 90°C temperature rating, this lug meets rigorous safety and performance standards. Tested by Telcordia to NEBS Level 3 and approved by the American Bureau of Shipping, it is ideal for terminating stranded copper conductors in control panels, switchgear, distribution systems, and other critical electrical infrastructure where secure, vibration-resistant connections are essential.

How to Install Copper Compression Connectors

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing copper compression connectors, ensuring secure and reliable electrical connections.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Crimping tool, Heat gun or propane torch

Supplies needed:

Copper compression connectors, Heat shrink tubing, Wire

  1. Prepare the wire

    Strip the wire insulation to the appropriate length as indicated in the tool chart. Ensure not to nick or damage the conductor strands.

  2. Insert wire into connector

    Insert the stripped wire into the copper compression connector until it reaches the stop. Ensure a snug fit for a secure connection.

  3. Crimp the connector

    Using the appropriate crimping tool, crimp the connector by placing it in the die and applying pressure. Follow the color bands or knurl markings for proper crimping zones.

  4. Inspect the connection

    After crimping, inspect the connector for any sharp edges, flash, or burrs. Remove any imperfections to ensure a safe and effective connection.

  5. Apply heat shrink insulation

    Cut the heat shrink tubing to the desired length, allowing for at least 1.5 inches of overlap on the wire insulation. Shrink the tubing using a heat gun or propane torch, moving from the crimped portion toward the insulated wire.
