Here's the Ilsco listing from UL, where it's classed as "Grounding and
Bonding Equipment":

The GuideInfo for Grounding & Bonding Equipment lists:
_Grounding and Bonding for Photovoltaic (PV) Systems _--- Grounding
and bonding equipment intended for use in PV systems are
additionally investigated in combination with the PV module/panel
(see QIGU) to the applicable requirements for such products.
Installation instructions provided with the PV system (see QIGU)
identify the specific grounding and bonding device that has been
investigated and intended for use with that system.

Yes, sorry. I wasn't speaking of this lug...I like the redesign. Looks
quicker and easier and robust.

Yeah, but this one is marketed as a solar bonding lug. I think it's
safe to say that it appropriately rated for outdoor use. It's always
good to double-check, of course.

Some of the aluminum lugs are indoor-rated. They have a set screw
will rust in an outdoor environment. That's one of the classic
John Wiles slides. I'd just watch out for that....

I believe the UL467 listing means that it is rated for direct
burial/outdoor use.
