That is a very high quality (think industry quality...mine has put on several thousand connectors from 1ga to 6ga in telecom sites over the years) ratcheting crimping tool that is the correct one for use on the 6ga Panduit power lugs that have come in the KoP in recent years. This tool makes very quick work with these lugs onto the 6ga power wire with a connection that will not come apart. Many teams do not use the provided lugs because they could never crimp them correctly, causing failures, and blaming the lug when it was the tool used. I believe that having the correct crimper available is great and an even bigger bonus that it is a real one and not a cheap one.
