configurations to meet your exact needs: 45° and 90° bend angles,
narrow tongues to fit into circuit breakers, offset tongues to stack two
cables and special stud hole drilling. These special configurations let you:
Run cable directly to the bus bar with no bending.
Terminate into very narrow spaces.
Utilize minimal bus bar space.
The specially designed lugs help you “clean up” your cabling
in crowded enclosures.
