Blackburn ADR35-12S – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Blackburn ADR35-12S lug be used on copper conductors, or aluminum only?
The ADR35-12S is a dual-rated mechanical connector, so it accepts both copper and aluminum conductors. The body is aluminum with a tin-plated finish, which is what allows it to land copper without the dissimilar-metal problem you get with a bare aluminum lug.
2) What wire sizes does the Blackburn ADR35-12S switchgear mechanical lug take?
It is rated for a single conductor from #4 AWG up to 350 kcmil. One conductor per lug, so a parallel feeder run needs one ADR35-12S per cable.
3) Is the ADR35-12S a UL listed lug for a panelboard or switchgear termination?
Yes. The Blackburn ADR35-12S carries UL file E9809 and is built as a switchgear mechanical lug, so it is intended for terminating feeders at switchgear, panelboard and equipment bus connections.
4) Is the Blackburn ADR35-12S sold individually or in a pack?
It is sold each, one lug per order, under part number ADR35-12S. Since each lug lands a single conductor, count one per phase plus neutral and ground when you are pricing out a three-phase termination.
5) Do I need a compression tool or dies to install the ADR35-12S?
No. It is a mechanical connector, so the conductor is clamped with set screws and torqued to spec. No hydraulic crimper, no dies, no press. That makes it the practical choice for field terminations and retrofits where you are not carrying a compression tool.
6) Where is the Blackburn ADR35-12S manufactured?
The ADR35-12S is made in Mexico. Worth noting if you are submitting on a project with domestic-sourcing or country-of-origin documentation requirements.
7) Will the tin plating on this lug hold up in a damp or corrosive electrical room?
The aluminum body is tin-plated, which is the standard plating used to slow oxidation on the contact surface and keep the aluminum from galvanic attack where it meets copper bus or copper conductors. For wet or outdoor locations, still use an approved oxide-inhibiting compound on the conductor per the installation instructions.
