  • Refer to catalog page DF-16 & 17 or DF-58 & 59 for recommended tool and die information.
  • * Not for copper to copper.
  • ***VC6500 for use with aluminum conductor only in range 350-500 MCM.
  • HIGH VOLTAGE APPLICATIONS-All Aluminum/Copper and Copper Lugs (VCEL,VACL,VHCL, VHCS and VCELC) are rated at 34.5 KV. The other U.L. listed compression connectors (VACS, VACT, VCCT, VHSS and VHS) have a maximum UL voltage requirement of less than 2000 volts, however Anderson recommends these connectors for application through 34.5 KV subject to the manufacturers' limitations and recommendations for the insulation material.
  • For further information, contact factory.
