High amp connections for wiring electric motors

Smaller crimps on 5KV rated cable

The crimps appear to start at least 1/4 inch from the edge and from the end of the lug

The visible parts of the bus show as copper. The plating appears to be tin?

This 600V switchgear has 1600 amp bus. The bars are braced for 65,000 amp faults (structure)

The 600 amp vertical bus looks a bit puny by comparison

This has nothing to do with crimping .. the equipment is being de-commissioned so I took the opportunity

Wego connectors: "For those in a hurry to burn your house down" I salute you.
With all the electric cars being sold and home charges being installed this seems relevant.

I have seen them used in industrial settings for years and my conclusion is they aren't worth a beaver dam. For communication and signal wiring they're fine for power wiring no, use wire nuts or or any of the above. Always follow code.
