Compression cable lugs and connectors for aluminum-copper connections
Copper’s electrical properties still make it the best material for conductors and electrical connections. There are, however, also good reasons for using aluminum. The need to connect these two materials together is therefore becoming more frequent.
But because it’s not that simple to join aluminum and copper and because they have a tendency to self-passivate through fast oxidation, special aluminum/copper cable lugs and connectors are required – for connecting to distributor networks or transformer stations and also for network reconstruction, for example.
