Can anyone tell me what this is? I found this in a GE Gold Powermark LoadCenter. It's fairly obvioius that the installer cut the neutral to fit one of the phase lugs and then realized he/she was attaching it to the wrong lug. Now being about 5 inches short with the neutral, he used this part to extend the wire. It is a lug with two flat bars that have been mangled (notice all the jaw marks from a pair of Channels) to fit in the real neutral lug. The part in question has a plastic part behind it and a rubber shield below the lug. It also looks like the add-a-part is too small for the 4/0 and does not have all the strands inserted. I'm just wondering what this was before it ended up here?
