Color-Keyed 256-30695-868 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I use a #4 or #8 conductor in this lug instead of #6?
No. This is a single-size compression barrel sized for #6 AWG copper, and a compression lug only makes a listed connection on the conductor size it was manufactured for. An undersized conductor will not be gripped by the crimp and an oversized one will not enter the barrel. Order the lug that matches the wire.
2) Are these copper lugs okay on aluminum conductors?
No. The barrel is copper with a tinned finish, made for copper conductors only. Aluminum cable needs an aluminum or bimetallic lug rated AL9CU or similar. The tin plating here is there for corrosion resistance and to keep the copper barrel from oxidizing, not to make it dual-rated.
3) What does the blue color code on this lug mean when I go to crimp it?
Blue is the die color for this #6 AWG copper lug in the color-keyed system. You match the blue die and the blue index number on your compression tool to the blue band on the barrel, so the crew can verify the right die was used by eye after the fact. Inspectors look for that on high-voltage terminations.
4) How high a voltage can these lugs be used at?
Rated to a maximum of 35kV, so they cover everything from control panel and branch circuit work up through medium-voltage distribution terminations. The UL E9809 listing applies to the lug.
5) What is the difference between a long barrel lug and a standard barrel lug?
The long barrel gives more conductor engagement, which normally means two crimps instead of one and more pull-out strength on the termination. That is the version here. Standard barrel lugs take a single crimp and sit closer to the terminal, which is what you want when space behind the bus is tight. For vibration-prone gear like motor control centers, the long barrel is the usual call.
6) Do these lugs come insulated, and do I need to add heat shrink?
They ship bare. No insulation and no insulating sleeve on the barrel, so if the application calls for a covered termination you will need to add heat shrink or a boot yourself. That is normal for medium-voltage and bus bar work where the connection sits inside an enclosure.
7) What part number do I order for the #6 AWG blue two-hole lug?
The manufacturer part number is 256-30695-868, the 1/2 inch stud version with a 4.18 inch lug length. Color-Keyed brand, tinned copper, long barrel.
8) Are these suitable for grounding and bonding connections in a commercial building?
Yes, tinned copper two-hole lugs are a standard choice for grounding and bonding to a ground bar or building steel, and the two 1/2 inch stud holes give the non-rotating connection that ground bar terminations typically require. The tin plating helps where the connection sees moisture or dissimilar metals.
9) Can I see the conductor through the barrel to confirm it bottomed out?
No sight hole on this one, so you cannot eyeball conductor insertion through the barrel. Mark your strip length on the cable jacket before you insert it and crimp to that mark instead.
10) How do these lugs pack, and how much does a box weigh for a bulk order?
They pack 10 to an inner carton and 50 to the outer. Weight runs 11.5 lbs per 100 lugs, useful if you are pricing freight on a panel build or a distributor stocking order.
