Burndy KA40U2N – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Burndy KA44U2N lug accept 750 kcmil copper as well as aluminum?
Yes. The KA44U2N is dual rated, with a conductor range of 500 kcmil to 1000 kcmil on both aluminum and stranded copper, so 750 kcmil copper falls inside the range. One conductor per lug, held by set screw.
2) What is the difference between Burndy KA40U2N and KA44U2N?
They are the two wire-size options in the same 2-hole universal aluminum lug family: KA40U2N is the 800 kcmil size and KA44U2N is the 1000 kcmil size. Pick by the conductor you are landing.
3) Does this Burndy lug bolt to a 1/2 inch stud pad with two holes?
It does. The KA44U2N has a 2-hole mounting pad with 1/2 inch bolt holes, so it lands on standard 1/2 inch equipment studs or bus bar drilling. The pad measures 1.77 inches wide and 0.50 inch thick, with an overall lug length of 4.75 inches.
4) What torque should the set screw on the Burndy KA44U2N be tightened to?
Installation torque for this lug is 550 inch-pounds on the set screw. Use a torque wrench or torque screwdriver rather than feel; under-torquing a 500 to 1000 kcmil mechanical termination is the usual cause of a hot connection.
5) Is this Burndy terminal lug UL Listed for inspection on a commercial switchgear job?
Yes, UL Listed and CSA Certified, built to the UL468A-468B standards for mechanical wire connectors. That covers panelboard, switchboard, and motor control center terminations where the inspector wants a listed connector on the conductor.
6) Can I use this aluminum lug in a direct burial or underground splice?
No. The KA44U2N is not rated for direct burial. Keep it inside enclosures, gear, or above-grade terminations and use a connector specifically listed for direct burial where the connection goes in the ground.
7) Why choose a tin-plated aluminum body lug for a copper conductor termination?
The tin plating over the aluminum body is what makes the dual Al/Cu rating workable: it separates the aluminum barrel from copper strands and from the bus it bolts to, which limits galvanic corrosion at the joint. Useful in damp or industrial environments and in grounding and bonding work where the connection has to stay low resistance for years.
8) Is one of these lugs enough per conductor, or do I need a compression lug instead?
One KA44U2N terminates one conductor, and it is a mechanical set screw lug, so no crimp tool or die set is needed, just a torque wrench. For a three-phase plus neutral feeder in 1000 kcmil you would order four. Go to a compression lug instead only where the spec or the gear specifically calls for a compression connection.
