Conduit compatibility and lug design enable a robust 250 kcmil-#6 AWG termination with a 6" trade size in rigid/IMC systems. Business impact: faster, repeatable installations with fewer torque issues and less field rework. Application: control panels and switchgear where large conductors terminate to rigid conduits. Temperature resilience is achieved with a 150°C rating, ensuring performance in high-heat environments and reducing insulation risk; this supports ongoing compliance in challenging facilities. Application: refinery, mining, and heavy industry where ambient temperatures can elevate conductor temperatures. The threadless, set-screw design minimizes misalignment and simplifies assembly, reducing installation time and potential cross-threading. Application: quick upgrades or refurbishments in existing enclosures. Durable malleable iron body with an aluminum lug delivers strength with weight advantages, improving handling during installation. Application: large-conductor terminations in rugged environments with weight considerations. Compliance and certification are reinforced by NEC/CEC standards and UL certification availability for US/Canada, easing project approval. Application: projects requiring documented regulatory alignment. Resource availability includes 3D CAD drawings, catalogs, and datasheets to streamline design workflows and BIM integration. Application: engineering design and procurement processes seeking verified references.

FAQs
The HGLS12 250 is designed for rigid/IMC conduits and uses a threadless, set-screw termination with an aluminum lug to accommodate 250 kcmil–6 AWG conductors. For installation, prepare the conductor, insert into the lug, snug the set screws to the recommended torque, and verify conductor seating and enclosure integrity. This simplifies field wiring and reduces risk of misalignment.
Key specs include a 150°C temperature rating, aluminum lug, threadless design, 6 inch trade size, and 250 kcmil–6 AWG lug capacity. These features ensure reliable high-temperature operation, secure large-conductor terminations, and fast assembly critical for high-uptime industrial applications.
Yes. The grounding bushing complies with NEC/CEC standards and is suitable for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. It is designed to support safe, code-compliant earth/ground connections in non-hazardous industrial environments.
UL certification reports for the HGLS12 250 are available in the product downloads section (UL listings for US/Canada). You can also access the Eaton Crouse-Hinds catalog page and the official datasheets to verify compliance for your project.
The set-screw, threadless lug design reduces vibration risk and loosening over time, while the aluminum lug lowers weight and corrosion concerns. The malleable iron body offers robust durability, contributing to longer service life and reduced downtime in demanding industrial settings.
