Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LCCX250-38DH-X is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Wire Gauge Compatibility: The substitute part must support 250MCM (kcmil) wire gauge to ensure proper current-carrying capacity and mechanical fit within the barrel crimp area.

Stud/Tab Size Equivalence: The 3/8 stud dimension must be maintained to ensure compatibility with existing mounting hardware and connection points in the installation.

Terminal Type and Style: The rectangular tongue configuration with two stud holes must be preserved to maintain mechanical and electrical interface compatibility.

Termination Method: Crimp barrel termination must be retained to ensure compatibility with existing crimping equipment and procedures.

Electrical and Material Properties: Contact material (copper), contact finish (electro-tin), and non-insulated construction must remain consistent to preserve electrical performance and corrosion resistance characteristics.

Dimensional Specifications: Tab thickness, barrel inner diameter, barrel outer diameter, and ring inner diameter must match to ensure proper fit and electrical connection integrity.

The LCCX250-38D-X qualifies as a direct substitute based on full alignment with all critical parameters listed above.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCCX250-38D-X is the direct substitute for the obsolete LCCX250-38DH-X. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters, including wire gauge, stud size, terminal configuration, and dimensional tolerances.

The primary distinction between the two parts is product status: the LCCX250-38DH-X is obsolete, while the LCCX250-38D-X maintains active status with current manufacturing and availability. The LCCX250-38D-X is supplied in bulk packaging, compared to the original part's unspecified packaging configuration.

Both parts maintain full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH regulatory requirements, ensuring environmental and safety standard adherence. The identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications confirm regulatory equivalence for export and tariff purposes.

Selection of the LCCX250-38D-X eliminates obsolescence risk while preserving complete functional and mechanical compatibility with existing installations and connection points.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the LCCX250-38D-X be used as a direct replacement for the LCCX250-38DH-X?

A: Yes. The LCCX250-38D-X is a direct substitute. All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical, including wire gauge (250MCM), stud size (3/8), terminal type (rectangular tongue), tab thickness, barrel dimensions, and contact specifications. The parts are functionally equivalent.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The LCCX250-38DH-X carries obsolete product status. The LCCX250-38D-X is the active equivalent, ensuring ongoing availability and procurement continuity.

Q: Are there any dimensional differences between these parts?

A: The LCCX250-38D-X specifies an overall length of 4.590" (116.59mm), while the LCCX250-38DH-X does not provide this specification. All other dimensions—tab thickness, width, barrel ID/OD, and ring ID—are identical. The mounting type differs slightly: the LCCX250-38DH-X is specified as 45° angle mounting, while the LCCX250-38D-X is free hanging in-line. This distinction does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility in standard applications.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.90.4000) classifications.

Q: What is the difference in packaging?

A: The LCCX250-38D-X is supplied in bulk packaging. The original part's packaging configuration is not specified in available documentation.

Q: Are the contact materials and finishes identical?

A: Yes. Both parts feature copper contact material with electro-tin finish, ensuring identical electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance characteristics.

Q: Can existing crimping equipment be used with the substitute part?

A: Yes. Both parts utilize crimp barrel termination with identical barrel dimensions (0.700" ID, 0.880" OD), ensuring compatibility with existing crimping tools and procedures.
