Panduit LCA3/0-38F-X Copper Compression Lug 1 Hole

Product Description

The PANDUIT LCA3/0-38F-X is a copper compression lug designed for terminating large-gauge conductors at equipment connections and grounding points. Compression lugs in this class provide a gas-tight, low-resistance mechanical bond between the conductor and the termination point. The single-hole mounting configuration allows the lug to seat flush against a bus bar, switchgear terminal, or panel stud. Electricians and low-voltage power technicians install this type of lug in power distribution, grounding, and bonding applications where a secure, permanent crimp termination is required.

This lug is suited for use in commercial and industrial electrical installations where 3/0 AWG copper conductors are terminated at distribution panels, switchgear enclosures, motor control centers, and grounding systems. The single-hole bolt pattern is compatible with standard equipment terminal pads. Installers working in heavy commercial, light industrial, and utility service environments commonly specify compression lugs of this type for their reliability and compliance with NEC termination requirements.

Key Features

• Copper construction provides excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance at the termination point
• Compression-style crimp creates a gas-tight bond, reducing resistance and preventing oxidation over time
• Single-hole mounting configuration fits standard bus bar and equipment terminal pads
• Sized for 3/0 AWG conductors, suitable for high-current power distribution and grounding work
• Sold individually, allowing procurement in exact quantities needed for the job

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression termination lug for 3/0 AWG copper conductors used in electrical distribution, grounding, and bonding applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements and local authority having jurisdiction guidelines. De-energize and lock out the circuit before beginning termination work. Use a calibrated compression tool rated for the lug and die set specified by the manufacturer to achieve a proper crimp. Inspect the completed crimp for full conductor seating and confirm the mounting hardware is torqued to the equipment terminal manufacturer specification before restoring power.
