Product Line:
Load Center
Resolution:
The use of an antioxidant on the load centers main lugs is not required. The lugs are UL listed for use with copper or aluminum conductors without the use of any antioxidation supplement. The use of an antioxidant is not prohibited, but assure that the brand used is a NON-PETROLEUM based product. If a petroleum based product is used, and comes in contact with the insulating base, it can degrade the insulating base material.
