Blackburn AL 600-48 TN – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What conductor size does the Blackburn AL 600-48 TN compression lug take?
It's sized for 600 kcmil conductor, one conductor per lug. The barrel is crimped (compression), not set-screw, so you need the matching die and hydraulic or battery crimper for a 600 kcmil aluminum barrel. One lug per order, sold each.
2) Will this lug bolt to a 1/2 inch stud on my panel or bus bar?
Yes. The AL 600-48 TN is a one hole lug drilled for 1/2 inch bolt size, so it lands on a 1/2 inch stud or bolt hole. The pad and barrel together measure 5-21/32 inches long by 1-15/16 inches wide, so check you have that much room in the gutter or termination compartment before you crimp it on.
3) Is this lug rated for 90 degree C conductor like THHN or XHHW-2?
Yes, the termination is rated to 90 C, so it does not derate a 90 C insulated conductor at the connection. It is also manufactured to ANSI C119.4, the standard for connectors used on aluminum and copper conductors.
4) Does this compression lug come insulated or with a heat shrink sleeve?
No insulation, no sleeve. The barrel and pad are bare tin plated aluminum, so if the installation needs the barrel covered you add heat shrink or tape separately after crimping.
5) Is the Blackburn AL 600-48 TN made in the USA for a Buy American job?
Country of origin on the AL 600-48 TN is the United States, which is what a government, school district, or federally funded project submittal usually needs to show. It is also built to ANSI C119.4 if the spec calls out a connector standard.
6) Should I use a compression lug or a mechanical set screw lug for a 600 kcmil feeder?
A compression lug like the AL 600-48 TN gives a permanent, torque independent termination once crimped with the correct die, which is why it is the common choice on large feeders and service conductors where you don't want to re-torque set screws. A mechanical set screw lug is the pick when you have no crimper on site, when the conductor size may change, or when the connection has to be reopened. If you go compression, you are committed to the tool and die, so confirm you have both before ordering.
7) Do I need one or two lugs per conductor run, and how do I order more?
Each order is a single lug, so count one per conductor end you are terminating. A 600 kcmil three phase plus neutral feeder terminated both ends needs eight. Ordering the exact part number AL 600-48 TN keeps every termination in the run identical, which is what an inspector looks for.
