Blackburn OAPA-350 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Blackburn OAPA-350 pin terminal used for?
The OAPA-350 is an aluminum offset pin terminal, a cable lug type termination that converts a large aluminum or copper conductor into a solid pin so it can land in a set-screw or pressure connector sized for a much smaller wire. Common use is terminating 350 kcmil cable into breaker or meter socket lugs that won't accept that conductor directly. It's rated 600 V.
2) Is the Blackburn OAPA-350 UL listed for 600 volt service work?
It carries UL file E63167 and is rated 600 V, which covers normal service entrance, panel, and feeder terminations. Confirm the terminal is used within the conductor size it's built for, 350 kcmil.
3) Why is the Blackburn OAPA-350 brown, and does the color mean anything?
Brown is the conductor-size color code on Blackburn pin terminals, not a finish choice. On the OAPA-350 the brown body identifies it as the 350 kcmil size, which is how an electrician picks the right one out of a bin of otherwise identical-looking pin terms.
4) Can an aluminum pin terminal like the OAPA-350 be used on copper conductors too?
The OAPA-350 body is aluminum. Aluminum-bodied Blackburn pin terminals in this family are commonly dual-rated AL9CU, but the rating that governs your install is the one stamped on the part and in the UL listing, file E63167. Read the marking on the barrel before you land it on copper.
5) Why choose an offset pin terminal instead of a straight pin adapter?
An offset pin shifts the pin axis away from the centerline of the cable barrel. That's what you want when the breaker or meter lug sits out of line with where the cable is coming from, or when adjacent phases would otherwise crowd each other in a tight gutter. If your conductor runs straight into the lug with room to spare, a straight pin terminal is the simpler part. The OAPA-350 is the offset version for 350 kcmil.
6) What is the exact part number to order for a 350 kcmil Blackburn offset pin terminal?
Order Blackburn OAPA-350. That's the manufacturer part number for the solid offset aluminum pin terminal in the 350 size, brown coded.
7) Is the Blackburn OAPA-350 sold individually or in a bag?
Each. The OAPA-350 is sold as a single terminal, so a three-phase termination needs three or four pieces depending on whether you're landing a neutral.
8) Is the Blackburn OAPA-350 made in the USA for projects with domestic sourcing requirements?
Country of origin on the OAPA-350 is the United States, which is the answer government, institutional, and public-works buyers need for Buy American style documentation.
