Types of Copper Lugs:
Copper Lugs
Copper lugs are the electrical connectors that are designed and used to terminate copper cables to be connected to electrical devices. They are widely used in industrial and commercial fields where a high conductivity, corrosion and durability are needed. Copper lugs offer not only a great security of electrical connections, but also allow uninterrupted power transfer.
Copper Compression Lugs
Copper compression lugs are electrical couplers which aim to electrically terminate copper conductors in power distribution systems. Such as they feature a barrel shaped body with a flared end that crimps onto the conductor and when crimped provides low resistance and reliable connections. Due to their wide application, these lugs are coming in handy in panels, switchgear and transformers.
Copper Reducing Lugs
Copper reducing lugs are used as terminals in the electrical connections for conductors of different diameters in the installation of power distribution. They provide the best connection and are very reliable; they are highly conductive while also being highly resistant to corrosion. Kanchan Sales offers copper reducing lugs that meet the requirements for use in the industrial and commercial sectors.
