Terminal Lug Data for General Duty Safety Switches
Terminal Lug Data for General Duty Safety Switches
The lugs accommodate both copper and aluminum conductors, with conductor counts ranging from one to three per phase. Wire bending space and lug wire range increase with switch amperage, ensuring compliance with NEC Table 312.6 and supporting larger conductor sizes required for higher current applications.
