Burndy YA8C2TC14 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes will the Burndy YA8C2TC14 compression lug accept?
The YA8C2TC14 is sized for 8 AWG copper. Stranded copper is 8 AWG, including 23(7) Navy stranding, and it also takes 8-6 AWG solid copper. Copper only, not aluminum.
2) Which crimp die do I use on the YA8C2TC14 lug?
Crimp it with Die Index 49, which is the red color code marked on the barrel. Match the red/49 die in your Burndy compression tool set; using a die for a different index gives an out-of-spec crimp.
3) Will this 2-hole lug land on a 1/4 inch bus stud with 5/8 inch hole spacing?
Yes. The pad has two holes for 1/4 inch studs on 5/8 inch centers, and the holes themselves measure 0.27 inch (7 mm), so they clear a 1/4 inch bolt or stud. Pad width is 0.44 inch, so check your bus pad has that much room between adjacent terminations.
4) Is this lug rated for medium voltage work, or just line voltage panels?
Maximum voltage rating is 35,000V, so the YA8C2TC14 is usable on 35 kV class terminations as well as ordinary 600V panelboard and switchgear work. It is UL Listed and CSA approved, and meets UL 468A-468B.
5) How much insulation do I strip back for this Burndy HYLUG?
Strip 7/8 inch. That fills the long barrel fully so the conductor bottoms out under both crimp positions. The barrel entry is chamfered, which helps feed stranded copper in without birdcaging.
6) Is a long barrel lug worth it over a standard barrel for 8 AWG copper?
The long barrel takes two crimps instead of one, which is what you want on vibration-prone gear, substation grounding, and utility terminations. It also needs a deeper strip, 7/8 inch, and more clear length behind the pad: overall length is 59 mm. If your termination space is tight, a short barrel lug is the better pick.
7) Why choose a 2-hole lug instead of a single-hole lug on a panel bus?
Two mounting holes on 5/8 inch centers keep the lug from rotating under fault current or vibration, which is why utility and switchgear specs usually call for 2-hole pads on grounding and feeder terminations. A single-hole lug can spin on its bolt. Here, both holes are 0.27 inch for 1/4 inch hardware.
8) Will a tin-plated copper lug hold up in a damp or outdoor enclosure?
The body is solid copper with an electro tin-plated finish, which is the standard corrosion-resistant plating for copper-to-copper and copper-to-plated-bus connections in damp or outdoor gear. Tin plating also reduces galvanic issues when bolting to tin-plated or aluminum bus.
9) Can I order a single Burndy YA8C2TC14 lug, or does it come in a bag quantity?
Minimum pack quantity is 1, so single pieces are orderable. The part number to specify is YA8C2TC14.
