Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the LCC3/0-00-X is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Wire Gauge Compatibility: Substitute parts must accommodate 3/0 AWG wire
• Terminal Configuration: Rectangular tongue geometry with no stud hole requirement
• Termination Technology: Crimp barrel termination method
• Contact Material: Copper construction
• Insulation Status: Non-insulated terminal design
• Mounting Orientation: Free hanging in-line mounting capability

The substitute part 325508 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors) satisfies all mandatory substitution criteria. Both components share identical wire gauge, terminal type, termination method, contact material, and insulation specifications. Dimensional variations exist in tab thickness, overall length, width, and barrel diameters; however, these differences remain within acceptable tolerance ranges for equivalent functional performance in 3/0 AWG applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 325508 terminal from TE Connectivity AMP Connectors serves as the primary equivalent substitute for the obsolete LCC3/0-00-X. Selection of this substitute is supported by the following engineering factors:

Product Status: The 325508 maintains active production status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain reliability compared to the obsolete LCC3/0-00-X.

Regulatory Compliance: Both components satisfy RoHS compliance requirements. The LCC3/0-00-X achieves ROHS3 compliance, while the 325508 maintains RoHS compliance. Both components are classified under identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.90.4000) codes, confirming equivalent regulatory standing.

Functional Equivalence: The 325508 maintains all critical electrical and mechanical specifications required for 3/0 AWG wire termination applications. Dimensional variations in tab thickness, overall length, width, and barrel diameters do not compromise functional compatibility within the specified wire gauge category.

Contact Finish Specification: The LCC3/0-00-X features electro-tin contact finish, while the 325508 provides standard tin finish. Both finishes deliver equivalent corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity for copper-based terminal applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 325508 directly replace the LCC3/0-00-X in existing applications?

A: The 325508 is functionally equivalent for 3/0 AWG wire termination applications. Both components share identical wire gauge, terminal type, termination method, contact material, and insulation specifications. Dimensional differences in tab thickness and barrel diameter do not prevent functional substitution within the specified wire gauge category.

Q: What are the primary dimensional differences between these two terminals?

A: The LCC3/0-00-X measures 5.030" overall length with 0.960" outer width and 0.130" tab thickness. The 325508 measures 4.020" overall length with 1.080" outer width and 0.120" tab thickness. Barrel dimensions also vary: LCC3/0-00-X barrel ID is 0.510" with 0.640" OD, while 325508 barrel ID is 0.576" with 0.722" OD.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitute?

A: The LCC3/0-00-X is supplied in standard packaging, while the 325508 is supplied in bulk packaging. This distinction affects inventory management and ordering procedures but does not impact terminal performance or compatibility.

Q: Do both terminals meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Both components satisfy RoHS compliance requirements and share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.90.4000) classifications. The LCC3/0-00-X achieves ROHS3 compliance, while the 325508 maintains RoHS compliance. Both regulatory statuses are acceptable for equivalent component selection.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish difference?

A: The LCC3/0-00-X features electro-tin finish, while the 325508 features standard tin finish. Both finishes provide equivalent corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity for copper-based terminal applications in 3/0 AWG wire connections.

Q: How do the barrel diameter differences affect wire termination?

A: The 325508 features larger barrel dimensions (0.576" ID, 0.722" OD) compared to the LCC3/0-00-X (0.510" ID, 0.640" OD). Both barrels are designed to accommodate 3/0 AWG wire through crimp termination. The dimensional variation reflects different manufacturing specifications between manufacturers but maintains functional compatibility within the wire gauge specification.
