Greenlee 52078402 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire sizes will the Greenlee 52078402 K-Series crimp tool handle?
The 52078402 crimps copper conductors from 8 AWG up to 1/0 AWG. It's built for smaller copper connectors, so anything above 1/0 needs a larger-capacity tool. Copper only on the rated capacity.
2) Is the Greenlee K-Series 52078402 crimper UL listed, and will it work with Burndy or Panduit lugs?
It carries a C/US UL Listing and is UL and cUL classified with Anderson, Blackburn, Burndy, ILSCO, Panduit and Thomas & Betts connectors. For an inspector or a spec that requires a listed crimp on a listed connector, that classification pairing is what you point at.
3) Will this Greenlee mechanical crimper fit inside a crowded panel or junction box?
That's the point of the design. The 52078402 has a crimp head that opens to 3-5/8 inches (92.075 mm), and the tool is 15-3/4 inches (400.05 mm) overall, so you're swinging handles outside the box while a compact head works the lug. Greenlee calls out getting into tight locations as a feature. Where it gets awkward is deep, narrow enclosures where you can't clear the handle arc.
4) Is the Greenlee 52078402 a hydraulic or a manual crimper?
Manual. It's a mechanical crimp tool, no pump, no battery, no hydraulic head to bleed or service. You get the crimp from handle force alone. For an electrician doing occasional 8 AWG to 1/0 terminations, that means nothing to charge and nothing to fail on a cold morning. Crews doing high volume or larger conductors are the ones who should be looking at a battery hydraulic head instead.
5) Can I use this crimper on aluminum conductors?
The rated capacity on the 52078402 is stated for copper: 8 AWG through 1/0 AWG copper, and the application is smaller copper connectors. Treat it as a copper tool and select a separately rated tool and connector system for aluminum or dual-rated terminations.
6) How heavy is the Greenlee K-Series 8 to 1/0 crimp tool to carry on the belt all day?
About 3.365 lb. That's a two-hand tool rather than a pouch tool, and at 15-3/4 inches long it rides in a bag or bucket, not on a belt loop.
