Devices that are used to connect cord to electrical appliances, surfaces, mechanisms, or other cables are known as Compression Lugs. The cable lugs also connect wires to the automotive battery and they are also present at the end of battery jumper cables.The installation and removal are quite easy which helps with maintenance and repair works. The compression cable lugs are generally used where permanent and direct connection is not feasible. They are widely used for electrical connections. However, there are more robust versions available which help to anchor the non electrical cables to the surface. The load bearing compression type terminal lugs can be made of different materials like steel or iron, and they are used for securing different components and cables. However, the non load bearing lugs are made of materials like brass, aluminum, etc., and they can sometimes be plated for optimizing voltage transfer. The flared compression lugs can also inhibit metal oxidation.
