Product Description
The Landis+Gyr 56734 is a heavy-duty aluminum mechanical terminal lug specifically engineered for grounding and bonding applications within meter mounting equipment. As the factory-standard ground lug for high-performance enclosures like the K-7T series, it provides a critical, low-resistance path to ground for service entrance equipment.
Precision-manufactured from high-strength 6061-T6 aluminum alloy and finished with electro-tin plating, the 56734 ensures superior conductivity while resisting oxidation and galvanic corrosion. Its AL9CU dual-rating makes it fully compatible with both copper and aluminum conductors, providing essential flexibility for residential and commercial utility installations.
