Aerial cast lugs, also known as aerial service lugs or line lugs, are specialized electrical connectors used in overhead power distribution systems. These lugs are designed to provide a secure and reliable connection between insulated power conductors and various components of the distribution system, such as transformers, switches, and other equipment. They are typically used in outdoor environments where power lines are suspended above ground.
There are various types of aerial cast lugs designed for specific applications:
Material : | » Cast Aluminum or Cast Bronze for conductivity, corrosion resistance, and strength. |
Function : | » Conductor termination, electrical connectivity, and mechanical support. |
Applications : | » Outdoor power distribution systems. |
Design : | » Durable for outdoor use; resists mechanical and environmental stress. |
Aerial cast lugs are typically made of durable materials such as cast Aluminium or cast Bronze. These materials offer good electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength, making them suitable for outdoor applications where exposure to the elements is common.
