Burndy YA292LN – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Burndy YA292LN compression lug take?
The YA292LN is sized for a single 250 kcmil copper conductor, and the copper stranded class listed is 250 (61). It is a one-size crimp lug, not a range-taking connector, so a 4/0 or a 350 kcmil cable will not crimp correctly in this barrel. Strip length is 1-1/8 inches and the barrel outside diameter is 0.75 inches.
2) Will this 2-hole lug bolt to a 1/2 inch stud pad with 1-3/4 inch hole centers?
Yes. The YA292LN has a two-hole straight tongue drilled 0.52 inch (14 mm) holes for 1/2 inch bolts on 1-3/4 inch centers, which is the standard NEMA two-hole pattern for 1/2 inch hardware. Pad width is 1.10 inches, so confirm your bus or equipment pad is at least that wide at the landing.
3) Which crimp die do I need for a Burndy YA292LN?
Die index 16, yellow color code. Set your hydraulic or battery compression tool to the 16 die and match the yellow marking on the lug barrel. Using an adjacent die index on a 250 kcmil copper barrel gives you an under- or over-crimped termination, so the index stamped on the lug is the one that governs.
4) Is this copper lug rated for medium-voltage cable terminations?
It is. The HYLUG YA292LN carries a 600V minimum to 35 kV maximum rating and a 90 degree C temperature rating, which covers substation, switchgear, and transformer pad terminations as well as ordinary 600V distribution work. It is UL Listed and CSA Approved.
5) Can I use this lug on aluminum conductor?
No. The YA292LN is a solid copper barrel intended for copper conductor only, listed as a code conductor application. For aluminum or dual-rated AL/CU terminations you need an aluminum-bodied compression lug, not this one. The tin electroplating on the copper body is for corrosion resistance at the bolted joint, not a substitute for an AL-rated connector.
6) How much room do I need behind the pad to land this lug?
Allow for 4.62 inches (117 mm) overall length on the YA292LN, with 3.02 inches from the tongue reference and a 0.75 inch barrel diameter. In a tight switchgear cabinet or a crowded pull box, that overall length plus the cable bending radius is usually the limiting factor, so check it against the depth you have before ordering.
7) Why choose a two-hole lug over a single-hole lug for a grounding connection?
A two-hole pad on 1-3/4 inch centers with 1/2 inch bolts resists rotation on the pad, which matters on grounding, bonding, and bus connections where a cable pull could twist a one-hole terminal loose and break the connection. The YA292LN gives you that two-bolt landing on a straight tongue. If the equipment pad is only drilled for a single stud, you need a one-hole lug instead, since you cannot use half of a two-hole tongue.
8) What does skive and chamfer barrel prep mean on this Burndy lug?
The standard barrel on the YA292LN is machined with a skive (a thinned, stepped inner wall) and a chamfered mouth. The chamfer lets a 250 kcmil stranded conductor feed in without birdcaging the strands, and the skive keeps the crimped wall thickness consistent for a low-resistance joint. Practically, it means you strip 1-1/8 inches, push the conductor fully to the barrel stop, and crimp with the 16 die.
9) Do these Burndy HYLUG lugs have to be bought by the box?
No. The YA292LN can be ordered as a single piece, minimum pack quantity one, so you can buy the exact count a termination job calls for rather than a full carton.
