ABSTRACT:
A lay-in lug which may be used for a grounding connection by securing it to a conductive bushing, or the like, is disclosed. The lug comprises a body member for providing strength and rigidity and a conducting member, supported by the body member, for providing a low resistance conduction path. The conducting member is in direct contact with both the laid-in wire and the bushing, or the like, whereby a low resistance conduction path is provided between the wire and the bushing. First and second clamping means secure the lug to the bushing and hold the wire in contact with the conducting means, respectively. The conducting member may be selectively removable from the body member and may include a turned-up lip for helping to retain a wire in contact therewith. The conducting member may also include means for inducing slight deformation of a wire compressed thereagainst to increase the pull-out force required to extract the wire. The conducting member adjusts, by mild deformation, to bushings of various configurations.
