Blackburn SA 2-48 L – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes does the Blackburn SA 2-48 L compression lug accept?
The SA 2-48 L takes #1 to #2 stranded AWG, and #1 compressed/compact AWG conductor. If your cable is larger than #1 or smaller than #2, you need a different lug body, since a compression barrel only crimps correctly on the conductor range it was sized for.
2) Is this a one-hole or two-hole lug, and what does that mean for my bus bar?
One hole. The SA 2-48 L has a single bolt hole in the tongue, so it lands on a single-bolt pad on a bus, breaker, or ground bar. If the drawing calls for a two-hole NEMA pad with center-to-center spacing, a one-hole lug won't satisfy it and you need a two-hole version.
3) Can I use an aluminum compression lug like the SA 2-48 L on copper conductor?
The SA 2-48 L is an aluminum-body compression lug. Blackburn rates it for #1 to #2 stranded aluminum sizes as listed, and it is supplied bare with no insulation. For copper-only terminations, use a tinned copper compression lug in the matching AWG range instead of an aluminum barrel.
4) Does the Blackburn SA 2-48 L meet ANSI C119.4 for connectors?
Yes, the SA 2-48 L is listed to ANSI C119.4, the standard covering connectors for use between aluminum and copper conductors. That's the reference most utility and institutional specs cite for compression connectors.
5) Does this lug come insulated or do I need to tape or boot it?
It ships bare, with no insulation on the barrel or tongue. If the installation needs the termination covered, plan on heat shrink or an insulating boot separately.
6) Is the SA 2-48 L a crimp lug or a mechanical set-screw lug?
Compression, so it's installed with a hydraulic or battery crimp tool and the correct die for the barrel, not a set screw. If you want a lug you can install with a hex key and re-torque later, look for a mechanical set-screw lug in the same AWG range instead.
7) How long is this Blackburn compression lug?
Overall length is 1-5/16 inch. Worth checking against the depth available in the gutter or panel before you crimp, since a short barrel like this one leaves little room to reposition once it's compressed.
8) Is the Blackburn SA 2-48 L sold individually or in a bag?
Sold each, one lug per unit, so you order the exact count the job needs rather than a fixed carton.
9) Where is the Blackburn SA 2-48 L lug made?
Made in the United States, which matters if your project carries domestic-sourcing requirements on electrical material.
