Blackburn PTL 750-8051 TN – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Blackburn PTL 750-8051 TN pin terminal accept?
It takes 750 kcmil conductor. The barrel is a compression barrel, so it gets crimped onto the cable with a hydraulic or battery compression tool and the matching die, not bolted or set-screwed.
2) Why would I use a pin terminal instead of a regular compression lug on 750 kcmil feeder?
A pin terminal converts a large stranded conductor into a solid pin so it can land in a set-screw or box-lug terminal that will not physically accept 750 kcmil stranded cable, or where the strands would splay under the screw. Typical use is breaker, disconnect and panelboard box lugs. If your gear has a bolted pad with holes, you want a one- or two-hole compression lug instead, not a pin.
3) Can I use an aluminum pin terminal on copper cable?
The PTL 750-8051 TN body is aluminum with a tin plating. Aluminum-bodied compression connectors are commonly dual-rated for copper or aluminum conductor, but that rating has to be read off the connector or the manufacturer's listing for the exact catalog number before you put it on copper. What the tin plating does do is give you a compatible contact surface against either metal in the lug pad.
4) How long is the pin on the Blackburn PTL 750-8051 TN?
The pin measures 6 inches. That length matters when you are checking that the terminal will seat fully in a deep box lug and still leave the compression barrel clear of the terminal block, so measure your lug depth before ordering.
5) Does this pin terminal come insulated or do I need to tape or boot it?
Bare metal, no insulation on the connector. On energized feeder work you provide the insulation yourself, typically heat shrink or a molded boot sized for a 750 kcmil barrel, or the cover that comes with the gear.
6) Is this pin terminal made in the USA for a Buy American job?
Country of origin on the PTL 750-8051 TN is the United States, which is the line a government, school district or federal-funded project buyer needs on the submittal. Procurement still needs the mill or compliance documentation for the specific job, but the origin on the part is US.
7) What is the part number to spec for a 750 kcmil tin-plated aluminum pin terminal from Blackburn?
Blackburn catalog number PTL 750-8051 TN. That is the single orderable configuration: aluminum, tin plated, compression barrel, 750 kcmil, 6 inch pin.
8) Is the Blackburn PTL 750-8051 TN sold individually or in a box?
Sold each, so order one per conductor termination. On a three-phase feeder with a neutral that is four pieces per end.
