Connectors and wire

[dm9289]

I am replacing an old contractor system that is fed by a GE ak-125 low V switchgear. The wire to the contractor is 750kcm, with the short distance between the contractor and the gear it is near impossible to make the wire work so I had a couple ideas but I am having difficulty getting parts locally

Idea 1 replace 750 with 2-350
Problem need 5/8 lug hole connectors 2 straight 2 with right angle due to breaker lug being parallel with ground.
Can't find locally right angle connector or lugs with 5/8
Hole to match gear

Idea 2 use straight lugs all 4 need to purchase flexible 350 most places in region just carry thhn
Can you suggest a cable type to use and manufacture
Can you suggest a vendor for these lugs, I have not had much luck with my web searches
Hoping to lean on someone's experience

Not sure I understand, do you want to stack two lugs to replace the single lug you have now for the 750's? Can you use something like this?

Maybe Southwire might have something for you.

Maybe Ilsco.com might have a lug for you....

Thanks, that was from about 5 years ago. 10-500 kcmil neutrals were fun. :roll:

That is possible would have to use more wise but not a big deal

I wanted the woe to point downward when finished the lug on the low voltage switchgear is horizontal
