Compression cable lugs and connectors are constructed out of electrolytic copper or aluminum depending on the application. Cable lugs mechanical parts used for connecting electrical cables to other electrical appliances, cables, and surfaces. They are designed to ensure smooth, fast, and efficient connections.
The Lug has one hollow cylindrical end called a barrel where the cable is inserted. After insertion, the cylindrical end of the lug is crimped using a crimping tool to secure the cable within the lug. The other end is a flat surface called a Palm. The palm usually has a hole to help connect the Lug to the machine, surface, or busbar by using a suitably sized fastener.
The design of the compression cable connector consists of one hollow cylindrical tube where the two cables will be inserted from either end. The connector has a cable stop facility at the center ensuring equal lengths of the cable will be inserted from both sides.
The compression connectors are used for forming a continuous path for electrical current through cables & wires by joining them together. Both the cables are secured inside the connector by crimping process using crimping tools and dies. At Multimet Overseas, we provide termination solutions to hundreds of clients across the world.
