Question:
Thanks for Maintaining this NEC Blog. Here's my simple question. Can a terminal lug be used for connecting more that one conductor? The conductors are copper conductors if that make s any difference.

A
Answer:
Greetings Adam and thanks for participating. The simple answer is one conductor per terminal unless the terminal is identified for more than one. See Section 110.14(A). Terminals identified for more than one conductor often specify maximum quantity of conductors, type of material, and sizes. Hope this is useful.
