Blackburn LAC2 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Blackburn LAC2 compression lug take?
The LAC2 is sized for #2 AWG stranded or #1 AWG solid conductor. If your cable is larger or smaller than that, the crimp will not hold properly and you need a different die-coded lug in the series.
2) Is the Blackburn LAC2 a one-hole or two-hole lug?
One slot. The slotted tang on the LAC2 is a single-slot pad, so it lands on one stud or bolt. If your bus or panel pad is drilled for two bolts on standard NEMA spacing, you want a two-hole lug instead.
3) Does the Blackburn LAC2 crimp or screw onto the conductor?
Compression only. The LAC2 has no set screw, so you need a hydraulic or battery compression tool with the correct die for the conductor range. If you want a screw-type connection you can install with a hex key, a mechanical lug is the different animal you are after.
4) Can I use the Blackburn LAC2 lug on copper wire, or is it aluminum only?
The LAC2 is an aluminum-bodied compression terminal, bare finish with no insulation on it. Aluminum compression bodies of this kind are normally marked for the conductor materials they are listed for, so match the lug marking to the conductor you are landing before you crimp.
5) What voltage and temperature is the Blackburn LAC2 terminal lug rated for?
600 V, and rated to 90 degrees C. That covers standard 90 degree C conductor insulation in general branch and feeder work up to 600 volt systems.
6) Why is the Blackburn LAC2 lug red, and does the color mean anything?
The red on the LAC2 is a color code that identifies the conductor range and matching compression die, not a finish choice. When you set up your crimper, match the die to the red code so the crimp is made with the correct tooling for a #2 stranded conductor.
7) What is the difference between a slotted tang lug like the LAC2 and a standard drilled-hole lug?
The slot is open at the end of the tang instead of being a closed round hole. That lets you slide the LAC2 under a partly loosened stud nut or lug bolt rather than pulling the bolt all the way out, which matters when you are terminating in a crowded gutter or on an energized-adjacent panel during a shutdown window. A closed-hole lug is the choice where you want the terminal captive on the stud and cannot have it back out sideways.
8) Does the Blackburn LAC2 come insulated or with a boot?
Bare, with no insulation on the body. If the termination needs covering for a service entrance, gutter, or exposed bus, plan on a separate heat shrink or insulating boot sized to the barrel.
9) What is the manufacturer part number for this Blackburn slotted compression lug?
Blackburn LAC2. That is the number to quote for the #2 stranded, single-slot aluminum compression terminal in the red die code.
