Overview

The Panduit LCCX500-12-6 Tin-Plated Copper Compression Connector Lug is a high-performance, two-hole, long-barrel lug designed for 500 kcmil stranded copper conductors. This UL Listed and CSA Certified connector features a color-coded barrel marked with Panduit and competitor die index numbers (P8720 for Panduit, 2.5625 for Burndy, and 2.5625 for T&B), ensuring proper crimp die selection for consistent, reliable terminations. The long barrel design maximizes the number of crimps, delivering premium wire pull-out strength and superior performance in demanding applications. Engineered with a generously beveled wire entry, the LCCX500-12-6 prevents bent-back strands during conductor insertion, reducing installation errors and improving long-term reliability. The enclosed barrel design prevents corrosive materials from entering the connection, making it ideal for harsh environments. Tin-plating inhibits corrosion, extending the service life of the connection even in moisture-prone or chemically aggressive settings. Rated for 35 kV and temperature-rated to 90°C when crimped with Panduit or specified competitor tools and dies, this connector meets Telcordia NEBS Level 3 standards and is American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) approved. The two-hole design provides enhanced mechanical stability, making it suitable for high-vibration applications such as industrial power distribution, renewable energy systems, and utility installations. With a stud hole size of 1.54 inches and a stud hole spacing of 2.50 inches, the LCCX500-12-6 is compatible with standard NEMA hole sizes and spacing configurations.

How to Install the LCCX500-12-6 Compression Connectors

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and insulating LCCX500-12-6 compression connectors for copper wiring.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Crimping tool, Wire strippers, Heat gun or propane torch

Supplies needed:

Copper compression connectors, Heat shrink tubing, Wire

  1. Prepare the wire

    Strip the wire insulation to the length specified in the tool chart, ensuring not to nick or damage the conductor strands.

  2. Insert wire into connector

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

  3. Crimp the connector

    Select the appropriate crimp die based on the connector specifications. Crimp the connector starting near the tongue and work towards the wire entry, evenly spacing the crimps as indicated by the barrel stripes.

  4. Inspect the crimp

    Check the crimped connector for any sharp edges, flash, or burrs and remove them if present to ensure a safe and clean connection.

  5. Prepare heat shrink tubing

    Cut the heat shrink tubing to the desired length, allowing for at least 1.5 inches of overlap on the wire insulation.

  6. Apply heat shrink tubing

    Position the heat shrink tubing over the crimped connector and apply heat using a heat gun or propane torch, moving from the crimped portion towards the insulated wire until the adhesive flows at the ends, indicating completion.
