Terminations on 150A Breaker

[kingpb]

A strange request as been brought up, but not sure if it's doable.

Is it possible to terminate copper conductors on a 150A breaker that is designed for screw compression terminations of cable? I don't think I've seen a breaker designed specifically for termination of cable by say a one hole compression lug; which doesn't necessarily sound impossible just out of the ordinary.

Thoughts?

Are you asking if you can remove the mechanical lug and replace it with a compression lug?
I have seen them like that and some even list the compression lug part number to use.

Yes, that is what I was trying to say.

Do you have a manufacturers example?

If you have the breaker model number you may be able to look it up. Try looking on the breaker itself.
I'll look for an example.
