Elastimold 02500270 Bimetal Compression Lug, 15/35kV 200A

The Elastimold 02500270 is a 15/35kV, 200A bimetallic compression lug featuring a 1-hole (BIMET 1H LUG) configuration sized for 4/0 STR stranded conductors. Engineered as part of Elastimold's ELA Series of separable connector components, this lug is designed for use with loadbreak elbow connector terminations on medium-voltage underground distribution systems. The bimetallic construction helps reduce galvanic corrosion risk at the connection point, supporting dependable electrical continuity in utility-grade URD and padmount applications. As part of Elastimold's broader ELA series lineup, this lug configuration shares its voltage class and amperage rating with related models such as 161LR-C, 162LR-A, 162LR-C, 02500240, and 02500250.

Key Features

  • Voltage Class: 15/35kV rated construction for medium-voltage underground distribution applications.
  • Amperage Rating: 200A continuous current rating for reliable circuit performance.
  • Lug Configuration: Bimetallic 1-hole (BIMET 1H LUG) termination design that helps reduce galvanic corrosion risk at the connection point.
  • Conductor Compatibility: Sized to accept 4/0 STR stranded conductors for proper mechanical fit and electrical continuity.
  • Series Identification: Part of the Elastimold ELA series of separable connector components, alongside 161LR-C, 162LR-A, 162LR-C, 02500240, and 02500250 configurations.
  • Loadbreak Elbow Compatibility: Designed for use with loadbreak-rated, fully shielded elbow connectors that allow safe connect/disconnect of energized underground circuits using standard loadbreak switching procedures.
  • Bimetallic Construction: Dual-metal lug body engineered to maintain a stable, low-resistance connection between dissimilar conductor and lug materials.

Elastimold 02500270 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What conductor size does the Elastimold 02500270 compression lug accept?
The 02500270 is sized for 4/0 STR stranded conductor only. It is a single-size compression lug, so if your cable is 1/0, 2/0 or 350 kcmil, this is the wrong part number. Check the stranded conductor size on the cable jacket before you crimp, because a compression lug sized for 4/0 STR will not form a sound barrel on a smaller or larger conductor.
2) Can I use this lug on both 15kV and 35kV underground systems?
Yes. The Elastimold 02500270 bimetal lug carries a 15/35kV voltage class and a 200A continuous rating, so it covers both 15kV and 35kV class medium-voltage underground distribution work at 200 amps. It is not a 600A component, so do not substitute it into a 600A deadbreak termination.
3) Is this lug for loadbreak or deadbreak elbow connectors?
Loadbreak. The 02500270 is an ELA series component intended for 200A loadbreak elbow terminations, the kind that allow energized connect and disconnect using standard loadbreak hotstick switching procedures on URD and padmount gear. Deadbreak terminations use a different connector family and a different lug.
4) Why a bimetal lug instead of an all-copper or all-aluminum one?
The 02500270 has a bimetallic body, which is what you want when the conductor metal and the mating stud or pad metal are not the same. The dual-metal construction keeps galvanic corrosion down at the dissimilar-metal interface and holds a stable low-resistance joint. If you are running aluminum cable into a connector designed around copper contact, the bimetal lug is the correct choice over a single-metal lug.
5) How many bolt holes does the 02500270 lug have?
One. It is a 1-hole configuration (BIMET 1H LUG), so it bolts to a single-stud pad or connector interface. If the elbow or bushing interface you are terminating to is drilled two-hole, a 1-hole lug will not land correctly and you need the matching two-hole version.
6) What other Elastimold ELA series parts share this voltage and amp rating?
Within the same ELA series 15/35kV 200A group, Elastimold also lists the 161LR-C, 162LR-A, 162LR-C, 02500240 and 02500250 configurations. Those are different lug or connector configurations at the same voltage class and amperage, so if the 4/0 STR 1-hole bimetal lug is not the fit for your conductor or pad, that family is where to look for the matching variant.
7) Does this lug come with a plated or painted finish?
No coating. The 02500270 ships bare, which is standard for a compression lug that gets crimped and then sealed inside an elbow connector body. Expect to use the manufacturer-specified crimp die and compound as part of your termination procedure.
8) What kind of jobs is this Elastimold lug used on?
Underground medium-voltage distribution work: URD systems, padmount transformer and switchgear terminations, underground feeder and cable connections, and 200A loadbreak switching on utility and industrial systems. It is a utility-grade separable connector component, not a building wiring lug for panelboards or switchboards.
