You probably have not seen some of my employer's transformers. Some are big. 
Some are very big. But none are very very big. FWIW, there is also the UL486x 
series that, depending on material, start around 30AWG. Note the end-use 
equipment standard will typically reference a component standard; for example I 
would behold the glory of UL1561, IEC60076, and IEEE C57x to determine 
lug/connector requirements.

After returning from a day of testing 350kVA transformers at the factory, 
testing typical 200-500W stuff does not provide the requisite level of 
'achievement'.  Love the feel of big E and H fields unraveling my DNA.

This standard is for large lugs: the Scope clause says:

.... conductors complying with IEC 60228 and IEC 60228A with 
cross-sectional areas 10 mm2 and greater for copper and 16 mm2 and 
greater for aluminium
