AC Panel Connector/Conductor Question

[Sn00ze]

Hello everyone, I would love some insight on something...

2x 4/0 cables are going to a panel's main lugs but the maximum size of the panel's main lugs look to be 250kCMIL. Just wondering what's the best way to do this if at all?

Do you crimp them into a pin like connector? or is there like a splitter for this type of situations?

As always, i look forward to your input! Thanks.

The lugs will have a maximum and minimum conductor size rating.
A 250 MCM lug will probably be rated for a 4/0 cable. Don't put two cables into one barrel of a lug. If these are single barrelled lugs, then consider changing the lugs to double barrelled lugs.

Thank you Waross. I wasn't sure what you'd call them or if they existed. I see Scheinder calls them sub feed lugs. I shall order some of those.
