<h2>ABB Thomas & Betts 54918BEPH Color-Keyed Copper One-Hole Lug</h2>
<p>The Thomas & Betts 54918BEPH is a long-barrel, one-hole copper compression lug engineered for medium-voltage power cable terminations up to 35kV. Part of the Color-Keyed connector system, the brown die color coding (die code 87) ensures the correct compression tool die is matched to the connector every time — eliminating installation errors on critical joints. A peep hole in the barrel allows visual confirmation of full conductor insertion before crimping.</p>
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Long barrel design provides extended contact area for superior mechanical strength and electrical conductivity</li>
<li>Peep hole inspection port confirms full 500 kcmil conductor seating prior to crimping</li>
<li>Color-Keyed system: die color code brown / die code 87 prevents mismatched die errors</li>
<li>High-conductivity copper construction with tin plating for corrosion resistance and low contact resistance</li>
<li>Rated for cable systems up to 35kV</li>
<li>1/2 in. bolt hole for standard one-hole mounting</li>
<li>UL Listed (File E9809)</li>
<li>Country of origin: Mexico</li>
</ul>
