Question:
Hello CQD,
You are providing a great service to the industry. My question today is can more than one wire be landed under a single barrel lug?

Answer:
Hi Andy,
Thanks for the comments. Generally no. Only one conductor is to be installed in a terminal unless the terminal is identified for more than one conductor. Terminals are often identified with the minimum and maximum size conductors allowed to terminate and whether more than one is permitted in a single barrel lug. Check out Sections 110.14(A) and 110.3(B).
