Milbank Z708124-AC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How does a stud mount connector attach, and will it fit my meter socket?
It is a stud-mount lug, meaning it bolts to a threaded stud or landing pad inside the enclosure rather than clamping to a bus edge or bolting through a flat two-hole pad. The body measures 1.313 x 3.25 x 1.813 inches, so you need that much clearance around the stud and above the gutter space. It is built as a metering accessory for below-entry conductor termination, so the natural home is a Milbank meter socket or service entrance enclosure with a below-entry conductor path.
2) Can a split bolt connector be used instead of the Milbank Z708124-AC in a meter socket?
They do different jobs. The Milbank Z708124-AC is a stud-mount mechanical wire connector for a single conductor from 3/0 AWG to 800 kcmil, built as a metering accessory that bolts to a stud inside the enclosure. A split bolt such as the NSi N-SP series tin-plated copper split bolt or the NSi N series 2-wire copper split bolt is a tap/splice device that clamps two conductors to each other in free air - there is no stud mounting provision, so it will not land a service conductor on a meter socket stud. Use the split bolt where you are splicing or tapping conductor to conductor, and the stud-mount connector where the conductor has to terminate on hardware.
3) What is the difference between the Milbank Z708124-AC and a Burndy YHD compression tap?
Connection method and purpose. The Milbank Z708124-AC is a mechanical connector - the conductor is clamped with a set screw, so it can be installed and re-tensioned with hand tools and later removed. The Burndy YHD series is an aluminum compression line tap, which is crimped permanently with a die and tool and is intended to tap one line conductor to another rather than terminate a conductor on a stud. If the installation calls for a re-enterable termination on metering equipment, the mechanical stud-mount connector is the one to specify.
4) Will an aluminum connector work with copper conductors?
The Z708124-AC body is aluminum. Aluminum-bodied mechanical lugs are commonly produced as dual-rated AL9CU, but the rating we hold on this part is UL Listed with a 75 degree C temperature rating and up to 600 volts AC. Check the AL/CU marking stamped on the lug body against the conductor metal you are landing before you torque it.
5) Is this a compression lug or a mechanical set screw lug?
Mechanical. The Z708124-AC clamps the conductor with set screws, so no hydraulic crimper, die set, or torch is needed, just a hex key or socket and a torque wrench. If your spec calls for a compression termination instead, a compression type connector such as the Burndy YHD Series aluminum compression line tap is the different animal, and it requires the matching tool and die.
6) Can I use this for a two-wire tap or splice instead of a single conductor termination?
No. It is a single pole, one-conductor connector, so it terminates one conductor to a stud. For joining two conductors together, a split bolt is the right tool. The NSi Industries copper split bolt comes in a two-wire version and a tin plated version. Those are copper connectors, so match them to copper conductors.
7) I need connectors for 12 AWG branch circuit splices in the same panel job. Is this the right part?
No, this lug starts at 3/0 AWG and will not grip anything close to 12 AWG. For small branch circuit conductors use a twist-on or push-in connector such as the Ideal Industries 30-1012 INSURE connector for 12 AWG, sold in a 90-pack. Keep the Milbank stud lug for the large service entrance conductors.
8) What part number do I order, and how many do I need for a three-phase four-wire service?
Order Milbank Z708124-AC. Because it handles one conductor each, a three-phase four-wire service needs four of them, one per phase leg plus one for the neutral, per termination point. Add a ground termination separately as it is not part of this lug.
9) Is a twist-on wire connector an alternative for terminating 3/0 to 800 kcmil service conductors?
No. Twist-on connectors such as the Ideal Industries 30-1012 INSURE are sized for small branch-circuit conductors around 12 AWG and are sold in bulk packs for device-box splices. The Milbank Z708124-AC covers 3/0 AWG to 800 kcmil on a single conductor with an aluminum mechanical body rated up to 600 volts AC at 75 degrees Celsius, which is the class of hardware service-entrance and metering terminations require.
10) When would a Burndy IMPLO implosive connector be specified instead of the Milbank Z708124-AC?
The Burndy IMPLO 9 Series and the Burndy 9052 implosive connectors are installed by an implosive charge and are used for permanent conductor splices, typically on overhead or transmission conductors. The Milbank Z708124-AC is a stud-mount mechanical connector carrying a UL Listed marking, intended for below-entry conductor termination in metering and service equipment. Choose the implosive connector for a permanent in-line splice in the field; choose the Milbank unit when the conductor must land on a stud inside an enclosure.
11) Does this connector come insulated, or do I need to tape or boot it?
It ships bare. There is no insulation on the body, which is normal for a lug landing inside a meter socket or service enclosure where the enclosure itself provides the barrier. If your installation needs the termination covered, plan on a separate insulating boot or tape per your spec. The lug is rated up to 600 volts AC.
12) Will a Wiremold pressure-type wire connector work in place of the Milbank Z708124-AC?
No. The Wiremold W30/W30G pressure-type connectors are steel components belonging to the 2000 Series raceway system and are intended for connections within that surface raceway. The Milbank Z708124-AC is an aluminum stud-mount connector measuring 1.313 in x 3.25 in x 1.813 in and sized for a single 3/0 AWG to 800 kcmil conductor in metering equipment - different material, different mounting, and a conductor range the raceway part does not address.
