Blackburn APA-250 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Blackburn APA-250 pin terminal actually do?
The APA-250 is an aluminum solid pin terminal, a wire lug that converts a stranded aluminum conductor into a solid pin so it can land in a breaker, meter socket, or panel terminal built for a pin-style connection. It is rated 600 V and is marked for the 250 size, with the brown color coding Blackburn uses to identify that conductor range.
2) Is the Blackburn APA-250 rated for 600 volt service equipment?
Yes, 600 V is the rating on the APA-250, which covers standard commercial and residential service and panel work up to 600 volts. It carries UL file E63167.
3) Can I use the APA-250 pin terminal on copper conductors?
No. The APA-250 is an aluminum-bodied pin terminal intended for aluminum conductors. For copper cable, use a copper or dual-rated AL9CU lug instead of this one.
4) Is the Blackburn APA-250 UL listed, and is it made in the USA?
UL file E63167 applies to the APA-250, which matters on jobs where the inspector wants a listed termination on the aluminum conductor. Country of origin is the United States.
5) What part number do I give my distributor for the brown 250 Blackburn aluminum pin terminal?
Order it as Blackburn APA-250. That is the manufacturer part number for the brown aluminum solid pin terminal in the 250 size.
6) Why is the Blackburn APA-250 brown, and does the color mean anything?
Brown is the color code on the APA-250, part of Blackburn's color-by-size system so an inspector or the next electrician can identify the conductor size the terminal was made for without pulling it apart. It is cosmetic only in the sense that it does not change the electrical rating, which is 600 V.
7) Does the Blackburn APA-250 come in a bag or box, or do I buy one at a time?
The APA-250 is sold each, so you order the exact count you need rather than a fixed carton. For a service upgrade with multiple conductors, order one per conductor being pinned.
