CCL-4-38

Overview

The Ilsco CCL-4-38 is a copper compression lug designed for 4 AWG flexible stranded copper conductors. It features a standard barrel with an overall length of 2.382 inches and a barrel length of 0.475 inches. The connector utilizes a single mounting hole compatible with a 3/8-inch bolt or stud. The unit is electro-tin plated, resulting in a gray color finish, and includes a sight window for visual inspection during installation.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from electrolytic copper material with an electro-tin plating for corrosion resistance
• Features a sight window to verify proper conductor insertion into the barrel
• Designed as a light-duty compression connector with a standard barrel profile

Applications

• Terminating 4 AWG flexible stranded copper wires in electrical panels
• Connecting conductors to busbars using a 3/8-inch stud
• General low-voltage power distribution connections

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required conductor size matches exactly 4 AWG flexible stranded copper. Confirm the mounting hardware requires a 3/8-inch diameter bolt or stud. Ensure the application does not require heavy-duty specifications, as this model is classified as light duty. Check for UL 486A/B listing requirements specific to your jurisdiction.

Selection Notes

Select this component when working with 4 AWG flexible copper wire and needing a single-hole termination point. The 3/8-inch stud size dictates the compatible equipment interface. Consider the tin-plated finish for environments where basic corrosion protection is sufficient. This model is distinct from rigid conductor lugs or those with different hole counts.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Ilsco CCL series of copper compression lugs. The series offers various conductor sizes and stud diameters. The CCL-4-38 specifically addresses the intersection of 4 AWG conductor capacity and 3/8-inch mounting hardware, providing a standardized solution for common residential and commercial electrical terminations.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 4 AWG conductor size, 3/8-inch stud diameter, and single-hole configuration. Verify material compatibility (copper) and plating type (tin). Cross-reference with other manufacturers' catalogs for equivalent light-duty compression lugs meeting UL 486A/B standards.
