Eaton HGLL8 250C Grounding Bushing - 150°C, Rigid/IMC
Part Number: HGLL8 250C
Quick Summary
HGLL8 250C grounding bushing by Eaton Crouse-Hinds enables secure copper lug terminations for rigid/IMC conduit installations. Too often, installers face loose grounds, corroding lugs, or mismatched fittings that slow commissioning and increase safety risk. It adheres to NEC/CEC standards for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, with Canadian certification reports available to support cross-border projects. Coupled with a 150°C rating and copper lug, this bushing delivers durable, low-impedance terminations that speed installs and reduce maintenance. Its 3 inch trade size and 250 kcmil-#6 AWG lug capacity support large conductor applications common in industrial automation. The malleable iron body and threaded design simplify mounting and ensure long service life in harsh environments.

Eaton Specification Sheet - HGLL8 250C
Feature: Threaded ground hub and copper lug enable secure terminations for conductors up to 250 kcmil to #6 AWG, with a rugged malleable iron housing that resists exposure, wear, and weathering in demanding industrial environments. Business Impact: This design reduces installation time while delivering a consistently low-impedance grounding path that improves fault current performance, signal integrity, and overall system reliability across diverse equipment and site conditions. Application: Use HGLL8 250C in control panels, heavy-duty enclosures, outdoor installations, and equipment rooms where large conductor terminations are routine, including panel field upgrades and outdoor substations. Feature: 3 inch trade size with malleable iron housing provides robust mechanical protection, precise thread engagement, and reliable mounting in crowded panel spaces and equipment racks. Business Impact: Enhanced vibration resistance and longer service life cut maintenance cycles, field reworks, and the risk of grounding interruptions, improving plant uptime. Application: Suitable for industrial automation equipment, weather-exposed sites, and harsh manufacturing environments where grounding reliability matters. Feature: 150°C temperature rating ensures safe operation under thermal stress and dense wiring bundles, protecting lug health and grounding performance even in high ambient conditions. Business Impact: Maintains conductor integrity, reduces insulation degradation risk, and supports ongoing code compliance during peak loads and long service life. Application: Ideal for motor drives, transformers, and outdoor gear exposed to heat and vibration. Feature: Rigid/IMC conduit compatibility with copper lug supports a broad range of system designs, improving install flexibility across plant layouts. Business Impact: Streamlines procurement and installation by aligning with standard conduit types used across plants, shortening project timelines and reducing supplier variety. Application: For new builds and retrofit projects in process automation, packaging, and heavy industry. Feature: NEC/CEC compliance and Ordinary/Non-Hazardous area classification reduce risk during audits and simplify cross-border engineering. Business Impact: Facilitates faster approvals, smoother QA checks, and a more predictable global asset rollout. Application: Global facilities and multi-site deployments in manufacturing and energy sectors.

FAQs
HGLL8 250C is designed for rigid and IMC conduit systems, featuring a threaded copper lug for large conductor terminations (up to 250 kcmil to #6 AWG). The malleable iron body enhances mechanical strength, while the threaded connection ensures secure, vibration-resistant mounting in control panels and outdoor enclosures.
Key specs include copper lug material, lug size 250 kcmil to #6 AWG, 3 inch trade size, threaded connection, malleable iron housing, and a temperature rating of 150°C, supporting dense wiring and heat-generating equipment while maintaining grounding integrity.
Yes. The product adheres to NEC/CEC standards for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, with Canadian certification reports available to support cross-border deployments and regulatory compliance in multi-site facilities.
Ensure proper torque on the threaded connection, use the copper lug with compatible conductors, and mount on a clean malleable iron surface to minimize impedance and prevent corrosion at the lug interface.
The lug supports up to 250 kcmil to 6 AWG conductors, enabling large-conductor terminations for high-current applications in power distribution panels and outdoor equipment.
