HARRISBURG, Pa. – Tyco Electronics Corporation has introduced UTILUX copper compression terminals and splices. The product line is ideally suited for secondary power distribution in buildings, power plants, electrical equipment, as well as many other industrial and commercial applications. UTILUX copper compression terminals and splices are installed with industry standard tooling and are color coded per industry standards.

The product line is made from high conductivity, seamless ETP copper for optimal electrical and mechanical performance. It is precision heat-treat tempered for enhanced crimping performance. Each terminal and splice is tin plated for corrosion resistance.

The product line is compatible with cable ranging from 6AWG to 1,000 MCM and accommodates termination with compact, compressed, or stranded copper conductors. Single-hole terminals are available with a standard or long barrel. Additionally a two-hole, long barrel terminal is available and accepts 4AWG to 1,000 MCM. UTILUX copper compression splices also accept 6AWG to 1,000 MCM and accommodate concentric, compact, or stranded copper conductors. UTILUX terminals and splices are rated for up to 35 kV.
