Abstract
A cradle type wire grounding lug is secured to the periphery of a conduit fitting such as a bushing. The lug has a body with a generally C-shaped cross section for the wire clamping portion and has a mounting tang extending outwardly and angularly offset from the base of the C-shaped portion with a mounting screw opening in the tang for securing it to the periphery of the bushing. A binding screw extends down through the top flange of the C-section generally transverse to the ground wire receiving groove along the bottom flange of the C-section, which has an opening concentric to the binding screw opening. The mounting tang is offset about 30.degree. from the plane which contains the base of the C-section.
