Panduit LCAN500-12-6 Copper Compression Lug 1 Hole

Product Description

The PANDUIT LCAN500-12-6 is a copper compression lug designed for terminating large copper conductors in electrical power distribution and grounding applications. Compression lugs of this type create a gas-tight mechanical bond between the conductor and the lug barrel when properly crimped, reducing resistance and preventing oxidation at the termination point. The single-hole mounting configuration allows direct bolted connection to bus bars, equipment terminals, and switchgear lugs. This type of fitting is installed by licensed electricians working on medium to large commercial, industrial, and utility electrical systems.

Copper compression lugs in the LCAN series are commonly used in panel boards, switchgear, motor control centers, transformers, and grounding electrode conductor terminations. The 500 designation in the part number indicates this lug is sized for 500 kcmil conductors, the 12 indicates a 1/2-inch stud hole, and the 6 indicates a 6-inch barrel length, making it suitable for high-ampacity feeder and service entrance terminations in commercial and industrial installations.

Key Features

• Copper construction provides excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance at termination points
• Single-hole tongue for direct bolted mounting to bus bars and equipment terminals
• Compression-style barrel creates a gas-tight, low-resistance crimp connection
• Sized for 500 kcmil conductors for high-ampacity feeder applications
• Sold individually, one lug per unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style copper compression lug for use with 500 kcmil copper conductors in commercial and industrial power distribution termination applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 110 and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit before making any terminations. Use a calibrated hydraulic compression tool with the correct die set specified for 500 kcmil compression lugs to ensure a proper gas-tight crimp. Do not attempt to install compression lugs with hammer-type or ratchet tools not rated for the conductor size.
