Panduit A6-14R-C Battery Cable Lug 2 Awg 5/16 Inch

Product Description

The PANDUIT A6-14R-C is a battery cable lug designed for terminating 2 AWG copper battery cable to a 5/16 inch stud. This type of compression lug provides a secure, low-resistance electrical connection at battery terminals, starter systems, and grounding points. It is sold as a single unit and is intended for installation by licensed electricians and trained automotive or industrial electrical technicians working on battery-based power systems. The lug is constructed for reliable mechanical and electrical contact in demanding service environments.

This lug is suited for use in 12-volt and 24-volt DC battery systems found in automotive, marine, commercial vehicle, and stationary backup power applications. It is commonly installed at battery terminals, bus bars, and grounding studs where 2 AWG cable is the specified conductor size. Technicians working on generator start circuits, UPS battery banks, and heavy equipment electrical systems regularly use this style of lug for reliable terminations.

Key Features

• Rated for 2 AWG conductor size for precise fit and full-contact termination
• 5/16 inch stud hole for secure bolted connection at battery posts and bus bars
• Compression-style lug design for low-resistance, mechanically stable termination
• Sold individually, allowing single-unit replacement or small-quantity procurement
• Suitable for DC battery systems in automotive, marine, and industrial settings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard termination lug compatible with 2 AWG battery cable installations requiring a 5/16 inch stud connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or trained technician. Always disconnect the battery or de-energize the circuit before installing or replacing cable lugs. Use the correct compression tool specified for the lug size to ensure a proper crimp — an under-crimped connection can cause resistance buildup and heat. Follow applicable NEC guidelines for conductor termination and torque the stud fastener to the hardware specification of the mounting point.
