Ilsco CLWS-8-10 Copper Compression Connector 8 Awg

Product Description

The ILSCO CLWS-8-10 is a copper compression wire connector designed for making secure, low-resistance electrical connections with 8 AWG copper conductors. Compression connectors of this type are crimped onto the conductor using a dedicated compression tool, forming a gas-tight mechanical and electrical bond. This connector is suited for use in electrical distribution, branch circuit wiring, and termination work where a permanent, code-compliant connection is required. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install these connectors in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This connector is intended for use with 8 AWG copper conductors in residential and commercial electrical installations. Typical applications include panel terminations, junction connections, and service entrance work where a reliable compression-style termination is specified. The connector is compatible with standard compression tooling sized for the 8 AWG range.

Key Features

• Copper construction for high conductivity and corrosion resistance at the termination point
• Compression-style installation creates a gas-tight, permanent electrical bond
• Sized for 8 AWG copper conductors
• Compatible with standard compression crimping tools sized for this conductor range
• Designed for use in branch circuit and distribution wiring applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression connector for use with 8 AWG copper conductors in standard residential and commercial electrical wiring installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). Always de-energize the circuit and verify absence of voltage before making any terminations. Use a compression tool rated and sized for 8 AWG connectors to ensure a proper crimp. Do not attempt to install compression connectors with pliers or non-rated tooling, as an improper crimp can result in a failed connection or fire hazard.
