Blackburn ATL2-516 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Blackburn ATL2-516 compression lug take?
The ATL2-516 is sized for 2 AWG conductor. The pink color code is the die/wire identifier for that size, so once it is crimped you can confirm the right die was used by the color. One conductor per lug, sold each.
2) Will the ATL2-516 lug bolt to a 5/16 inch stud on my equipment pad?
Yes. It is a one-hole tongue lug with a 5/16 inch stud size, so it lands on a 5/16 inch bolt or stud. For a two-bolt NEMA pad pattern you need a two-hole lug instead, not this one.
3) Can I use an aluminum compression lug like the ATL2-516 on copper conductor?
The ATL2-516 body is aluminum and the part is specified for 2 AWG aluminum. Terminating copper calls for a lug listed for copper or a dual-rated AL/CU connector. Where an aluminum lug lands on a copper or tinned bus, use an appropriate joint compound and torque per the equipment label.
4) Is the Blackburn ATL2-516 UL listed, and what voltage is it rated for?
It carries UL file E9809 and is rated 35 kV, which covers medium voltage terminations as well as ordinary 600 V work.
5) Compression lug or mechanical set-screw lug for a 2 AWG aluminum feeder?
The ATL2-516 is a compression type, crimped with a hydraulic or battery tool and the matching die. That gives a permanent, tamper-resistant termination with no torque to re-check later. A mechanical set-screw lug is the choice when you have no crimp tool on site or expect to re-terminate the conductor.
6) Do I need anything besides the ATL2-516 lug to land the conductor?
The lug itself is the only piece supplied, one per pack. You supply the 5/16 inch bolt, nut and washers (or land it on the existing stud), the crimp tool with the correct die, and oxide-inhibiting compound for the aluminum conductor barrel if the connector is not pre-filled.
7) What does the pink marking on this Blackburn lug mean?
Pink is the color code tied to the 2 AWG aluminum die on Blackburn compression connectors. Inspectors use it to verify the installer crimped with the matching die, so do not paint or cover the marking after installation.
8) Where is the Blackburn ATL2-516 made, for submittal paperwork?
Country of origin is Mexico. The orderable part number is ATL2-516 under the Blackburn brand, which is what should appear on the submittal or BOM line.
