Southwire L806CL Aluminum Clamp-on Service Entrance Cap 2.5 in

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE L806CL is an aluminum clamp-on service entrance cap designed to terminate overhead service entrance conductors at the weatherhead. The clamp-on design secures directly to service entrance cable or conduit without requiring threading or additional fittings, making it a practical choice for utility service installations. Sized for 2-1/2 inch applications, this cap provides a weather-resistant entry point where overhead utility conductors transition into the service entrance raceway. Electricians rely on this style of fitting to meet service entrance requirements on residential and light commercial structures.

This service entrance cap is suited for use on residential and light commercial service entrance installations where overhead utility drops connect to the building service. The clamp-on configuration accommodates 2-1/2 inch service entrance cable or conduit and is a common replacement or new-installation fitting used by licensed electricians during service upgrades, meter base replacements, and new construction rough-in work.

• Clamp-on design installs without threading, reducing labor on service calls
• Sized for 2-1/2 inch service entrance cable or conduit

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation of service entrance caps must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 230 governing service entrance conductors and equipment. De-energize and coordinate with the utility provider before working on or near service entrance conductors, as the utility-side conductors may remain live. Secure the clamp-on fitting firmly to the conduit or cable to ensure a weathertight connection and prevent conductor pullout. Inspect the drip loop and conductor clearances to confirm compliance with local inspection requirements.
