Select the appropriate copper cable lug according to cable size, conductor construction, stud hole, palm dimensions, barrel design, mounting configuration and project requirements.
For other conductor materials or installation methods, explore our complete Cable Lugs range, including Aluminum Cable Lugs, Bimetallic Cable Lugs and Mechanical Cable Lugs.
Copper Cable Lug Types
Different copper cable lug designs are available to match conductor sizing systems, equipment interfaces and installation requirements.
Standard Copper Compression Lugs
Standard compression lugs are used for common copper cable termination requirements. Select the model according to conductor size, stud hole and lug dimensions.
WISETREE offers multiple copper lug series, including SC and other tubular compression designs for different cable and equipment requirements.
DIN Copper Cable Lugs
DIN-designated copper cable lugs are available for projects where a defined dimensional series is specified.
When selecting a DIN product, confirm:
-
Cable cross-section
-
Conductor construction
-
Stud hole
-
Required DIN series
-
Product dimensions
Refer to the specific DIN product page for detailed size information.
AWG Copper Cable Lugs
For projects using AWG cable sizing, select a copper lug designed around the corresponding AWG conductor range.
Confirm both the AWG size and equipment-side mounting dimensions before ordering.
Long Barrel Copper Lugs
Long-barrel lugs provide a longer conductor insertion and compression section than standard barrel designs.
Where a long-barrel configuration is specified, confirm the required barrel length, conductor size and overall lug dimensions against the product specification.
2-Hole and Multi-Hole Copper Lugs
Some equipment interfaces require more than one mounting point.
For 2-hole or multi-hole lugs, confirm:
-
Stud diameter
-
Number of holes
-
Hole spacing
-
Palm width
-
Palm thickness
-
Equipment mounting pattern
Angled Copper Cable Lugs
Straight lugs are not suitable for every installation.
Where cabinet space, cable routing or terminal orientation is restricted, angled cable lugs such as 45° or 90° configurations may provide a more suitable termination layout.
Confirm the lug angle and equipment connection direction before ordering.

If your project includes multiple conductor sizes, send the complete cable schedule so the required models can be reviewed together.
Copper Material and Surface Options
Material and surface condition affect electrical contact, corrosion resistance and long-term installation performance.
Different WISETREE copper cable lug series may use different copper specifications or surface treatments according to their design.
Available product options may include:
-
Bare copper
-
Tin-plated copper
-
Model-specific copper grades
-
Project-specified surface requirements
Do not assume that the same copper grade or plating specification applies to every product series.
If your project specifies copper purity, material grade, plating or coating requirements, include those details when requesting a quotation so the appropriate product can be confirmed.
DIN and AWG Copper Cable Lug Options
Copper cable lug dimensions can vary according to the cable sizing system and product series.
WISETREE's current range includes both DIN-designated and AWG-related copper lug products.
For DIN Requirements
Provide:
-
Cable cross-section
-
Conductor type
-
Required DIN series
-
Stud hole

Always confirm dimensional compatibility against the individual product specification rather than selecting only by the DIN or AWG designation.
Straight, 2-Hole and Angled Lug Configurations
The equipment-side connection is as important as the conductor-side barrel.
Single-Hole Copper Lugs
Suitable where the equipment uses a standard single-stud connection.
Confirm the stud hole and palm dimensions.
2-Hole Copper Lugs
Use a 2-hole design where the equipment requires two mounting points.
Confirm:
-
Stud diameter
-
Hole spacing
-
Palm width
Angled Copper Lugs
Use an angled lug when a straight connection would create cable routing or installation-space problems.
For 45° or 90° designs, verify the required orientation against the actual equipment layout before ordering.
Custom Copper Cable Lugs
Standard catalogue dimensions do not fit every switchgear, transformer, busbar or equipment interface.
WISETREE can review project-specific copper cable lug requirements according to manufacturing feasibility.
Custom requirements may include:
-
Conductor size
-
Barrel inner and outer dimensions
-
Barrel length
-
Palm width
-
Palm thickness

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the correct copper cable lug size?
Start with the copper conductor cross-section, then confirm the conductor construction, barrel dimensions, stud hole and equipment mounting interface. Do not select the lug only by nominal cable size.
What is the difference between DIN and standard copper cable lugs?
DIN-designated cable lugs follow a defined dimensional series, while other copper lug series may use different dimensional systems or manufacturer-specific designs. If your project specifies a DIN requirement, include the exact specification in your RFQ.
How do I select the correct stud hole size?
Match the lug hole to the equipment stud or bolt. When replacing an existing lug, measure or confirm the terminal stud before selecting the new product.
When should I use a 2-hole copper cable lug?
Use a 2-hole lug when the equipment connection requires two mounting points. Confirm both the stud diameter and hole spacing before ordering.
What is the difference between standard and long-barrel copper lugs?
A long-barrel lug has a longer conductor insertion and compression section. Select it only where the project or installation method requires that barrel configuration.
Can the same copper lug be used for stranded and flexible conductors?
Not necessarily. Conductor construction can affect compatibility with the lug barrel and crimping system. Provide the conductor type when requesting product matching.
Do you supply AWG copper cable lugs?
Yes. WISETREE's current range includes AWG-related copper cable lug products. Provide the AWG conductor size, stud hole and required mounting configuration for model selection.
Can copper cable lugs be customized to my drawing?
Project-specific dimensions and configurations can be reviewed according to manufacturing feasibility. Send the drawing, conductor specification, required dimensions and estimated quantity for evaluation.
Send Your Copper Cable Lug Specification
If you already know the required product series, send the model, cable size and quantity for quotation.
If you are still selecting a product, provide your cable size, conductor construction, stud size, hole configuration and required dimensions. For equipment-specific or non-standard terminations, attach a drawing or reference sample.
