Blackburn APA-1 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is a Blackburn APA-1 pin terminal used for?
The Blackburn APA-1 is an aluminum solid pin terminal, a wire lug that converts a stranded conductor into a solid pin so it can be landed in a terminal or breaker lug that will not accept stranded aluminum. It is rated 600 V and UL listed under file E63167.
2) What wire size does the tan Blackburn pin terminal take?
Tan is the color code on the APA-1 and it corresponds to No. 1 conductor. If your conductor is a different size, you need the matching color-coded APA part rather than this one, since a pin terminal only crimps correctly on the gauge it was made for.
3) Can I use this pin terminal on copper wire?
The APA-1 body is aluminum, and it is built for aluminum conductors. Mixing metals in a compression connection invites galvanic corrosion, so for copper conductors use a copper or dual-rated (AL9CU) pin terminal instead.
4) Is the Blackburn APA-1 rated for a 480 V panel?
Yes. The APA-1 pin terminal carries a 600 V rating, which covers 120/208, 277/480 and other common commercial distribution voltages.
5) Is the APA-1 UL listed, and where is it made?
UL listed under file E63167, and made in the United States. That combination is what most institutional and government specs are looking for when they call out domestic UL listed connectors.
6) What part number do I order for the No. 1 aluminum pin terminal?
Order Blackburn APA-1. That is the manufacturer part number for the tan, No. 1, aluminum solid pin terminal.
7) Do Blackburn APA-1 pin terminals come in a bag or are they sold individually?
They are sold each, so order one terminal per conductor you are terminating. On a three phase plus neutral feeder that is four pieces.
