Overview
The ABB Thomas & Betts 54860BE0616NP is a long barrel, blind end copper compression lug engineered for high-voltage termination applications up to 35kV. Designed for 1/0 AWG conductors, this two-hole lug features a nickel-plated copper body for superior corrosion resistance and reliable long-term conductivity. The blind end design prevents wire strands from pushing through during crimping, ensuring a clean, code-compliant installation. Color-keyed pink die code 42 coding simplifies field identification and reduces installation errors.
Features
- Long barrel design provides greater contact area and improved pull-out strength
- Blind end construction keeps conductor strands contained during compression
- Nickel-plated copper body resists oxidation and ensures low-resistance connections
- Two-hole tongue with 3/8 inch bolt holes and 1 inch hole spacing for secure dual-bolt termination
- Rated for conductors up to 35kV — suitable for medium-voltage switchgear and cable terminations
- Die code 42 (pink color code) for quick, error-free die and lug matching in the field
- Compatible with standard hydraulic compression tooling using die code 42
