Panduit Pan-Lug™ LAA Series Aluminum Compression Lug, One-Hole
The Panduit Pan-Lug™ LAA Series is a one-hole aluminum compression connector lug manufactured from high-conductivity thick-wall aluminum with an enclosed barrel built for harsh electrical environments. This family is available for conductor sizes ranging from 2 AWG to 4/0 AWG, giving installers a single trusted lug platform across a wide range of aluminum and copper conductor terminations. Every lug in the LAA Series is factory pre-filled with oxide-inhibiting joint compound and tin-plated to resist corrosion, and the entire range is cULus listed up to 35kV with a UL temperature rating of 90°C. The color-coded barrel is marked with Panduit and specified competitor die index numbers so installers select the correct crimp die every time, regardless of which conductor size in the 2 AWG to 4/0 AWG range is being terminated.

Panduit LAA2-38-70 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Panduit Pan-Lug LAA aluminum lug be used on copper conductors, or is it aluminum only?
The LAA Series barrel is thick-wall high-conductivity aluminum with a tin-plated finish, and Panduit lists it for terminating both aluminum and copper conductors. The barrel ships pre-filled with oxide-inhibiting joint compound, which is what makes the aluminum termination hold up without the installer brushing and buttering the conductor on site.
2) What size stud or bolt does the one-hole Pan-Lug LAA lug take?
One stud hole, 10.5 mm, which takes a 3/8 inch bolt or stud with clearance. The tongue is straight with a standard tongue type, so it lands flat on a bus bar or breaker pad without a bend.
3) Which conductor sizes does the Panduit LAA compression lug cover?
Three sizes: 2 AWG (LAA2-38-70), 2/0 AWG (LAA2/0-38-40) and 4/0 AWG (LAA4/0-38-30). Each lug is sized to one conductor, so match the part number to the cable you are landing rather than assuming one barrel covers a range.
4) How do I know which crimp die to use on the Pan-Lug LAA lug?
The die index is printed on the barrel itself, color-coded and marked with both Panduit die numbers and the equivalent specified competitor die index numbers. That means a crew running another manufacturer's crimp head can read the correct die straight off the lug instead of cross-referencing a chart.
5) Is this Panduit lug rated for medium-voltage cable terminations?
Yes. The LAA Series is cULus listed up to 35 kV maximum voltage, with a UL temperature rating of 90 degrees C, and Panduit lists medium-voltage cable terminations up to 35 kV among its applications. It is also UL Listed to 486A-486B under file E52164 and CSA certified.
6) Will an enclosed-barrel lug like this hold up outdoors or in a corrosive plant environment?
That is what the enclosed barrel is for. There is no inspection window, so the barrel is sealed against moisture and contaminants along its length, the tin plating resists corrosion on the aluminum, and the factory joint compound is already inside the barrel. If you need to visually confirm conductor insertion depth after crimping, you want a lug with an inspection window instead, because the LAA does not have one.
7) Is a one-hole lug enough, or do I need a two-hole lug on this connection?
The LAA is a single stud hole design. One hole is fine for most panelboard, switchgear and breaker pad landings, but a one-hole lug can rotate under fault torque, so where your spec or the equipment pad calls for two-hole NEMA bolt spacing to prevent rotation, a one-hole lug will not satisfy it. Check the pad drilling before ordering.
8) Do I need to buy separate oxide inhibitor for these aluminum lugs?
No. Each connector barrel arrives pre-filled with oxide-inhibiting joint compound from the factory, so there is nothing to add before crimping. Strip, insert, crimp to the marked die. The beveled barrel entry helps guide the conductor strands in without birdcaging.
9) Are Panduit Pan-Lug LAA lugs RoHS compliant and free of Prop 65 warnings?
RoHS compliant, with no mercury content, no Proposition 65 cancer warning and no hazardous material flag. They are made in India. For institutional and government submittals that ask for restricted-substance declarations, those are the values on record.
10) Can I order a single Panduit LAA lug, or do they only sell by the pack?
Minimum order is 1 piece, so you can buy one lug for a single termination rather than committing to a full carton.
