Product Description
The ILSCO TA-0 is a high-performance, single-barrel mechanical terminal lug and a cornerstone of the ClearChoice series. Precision-engineered from high-strength 6061-T6 aluminum alloy, this lug is designed for maximum versatility in panelboards and distribution equipment. It features a unique range-taking ability that supports a single conductor up to 1/0 AWG or a double-conductor configuration for smaller branch circuits.
Every TA-0 is electro-tin plated to ensure low contact resistance and to prevent oxidation. As a dual-rated (AL9CU) connector, it provides a safe, permanent bond for both copper and aluminum conductors. Its compact footprint and 2000V rating make it the industry standard for commercial and industrial electrical terminations.
