Abb tplug408 Lug Kit 1600A Switchboard

Product Description

The ABB tplug408 is a lug kit rated for 1600A service, designed for use in switchboard and panelboard assemblies where secure, high-capacity conductor terminations are required. Each lug in this kit is rated at 800A and accepts copper or aluminum conductors ranging from 3/0 AWG up to 800 kcmil, with a secondary range of 500 to 800 kcmil. This kit is installed by licensed electricians during new service installations or switchboard upgrades where high-ampacity terminations must meet NEC requirements for conductor sizing and termination torque per manufacturer labeling.

This lug kit is suited for commercial and industrial electrical distribution applications. It is typically installed in main switchboard sections, distribution panels, and similar high-ampacity equipment where reliable bus terminations are critical to system performance and safety. The 1600A aggregate rating makes it appropriate for large service entrance and feeder applications in commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and utility distribution assemblies.

Key Features

• 1600A total kit rating for high-capacity switchboard terminations
• 800A per lug rating supports heavy feeder and service entrance conductors
• Dual-rated for copper and aluminum conductors
• Wide wire range: 3/0 AWG to 800 kcmil (500 to 800 kcmil secondary range)
• OEM-style plug-in lug design for switchboard compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement lug kit for ABB PBII series switchboard equipment rated at 1600A. Confirm fitment against the specific switchboard section and bus configuration before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the switchboard fully before beginning any conductor termination work. Torque all lug connections to the value specified on the equipment nameplate or the manufacturer's installation sheet. Do not mix copper and aluminum conductors within a single lug termination unless the lug is explicitly rated for that configuration.
