Blackburn LAC302 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Blackburn LAC302 lug take?
The LAC302 is sized for 3/0 AWG stranded conductor, or 4/0 AWG solid. It's a compression lug, so it goes on with a hydraulic or battery crimp tool and the correct die, not a set screw.
2) Can I use the Blackburn LAC302 on aluminum conductor, or copper only?
It's an aluminum-body lug (the AL in the description) with a bare, uninsulated barrel and no insulation on it. Use it on the conductor the manufacturer's listing calls for and pack the barrel with the correct inhibitor compound for aluminum terminations.
3) How many bolt holes does the LAC302 tang have?
Two. It's a slotted-tang, 2-slot lug, so it lands on a two-hole pad. Slots rather than round holes give you some play to line up on standard NEMA hole spacing, but a two-hole pad is required, a single-bolt lug will not substitute where the drawing calls for two.
4) Is the Blackburn LAC302 rated for 90 C conductor and 600 volt service?
Rated 600 V with a 90 degree C temperature rating, which covers THHN/THWN-2 and XHHW-2 terminations at their 90 C insulation rating in standard branch and feeder work.
5) Does the LAC302 come with mounting bolts or inhibitor compound?
No. It's sold as a single lug, each, with a bare aluminum body and nothing else in the pack. Order your pad bolts, washers, and any joint compound separately.
6) Do I need to insulate the LAC302 after crimping?
The lug ships bare with no insulation, so in any application where the termination has to be covered you add heat shrink or a boot yourself. Inside a gutter, panel, or enclosed pad where clearances are maintained, bare is normal.
7) What is the manufacturer part number and country of origin for this Blackburn lug?
Part number LAC302, made in Mexico. Distributors ordering to a spec should call it out as Blackburn LAC302, the 3/0 two-slot aluminum compression terminal.
8) Why is the Blackburn LAC302 black instead of bare silver?
The body is finished black, which is common on aluminum compression lugs as a marking and coating convention. The conductor barrel and contact surface are bare metal.
