Color-Keyed 54862BE – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Color Keyed 2/0 AWG two-hole lug land on 1/2 inch studs in my panel or switchgear?
Yes. The Color Keyed (Blackburn) 2/0 AWG long-barrel lug is a two-hole pad drilled for 1/2 inch stud size, so it bolts straight to 1/2 inch busbar studs or landing pads. Two holes also keep the lug from rotating under torque, which is why it is the usual choice for switchgear and transfer switch terminations rather than a single-hole pad.
2) Is this lug rated for medium-voltage cable terminations?
The voltage rating is 35 kV, which covers medium-voltage work such as power distribution, substation terminations and high-voltage feeder landings. It carries a UL listing under file E9809. Note the lug itself has no insulation, so the voltage rating is realized through your cable termination kit or separate insulating boot, not the lug body.
3) What does the black color on these Color Keyed lugs mean? Is it just cosmetic?
Black here is the color-key, not paint for looks. In the Color Keyed system the color identifies the die index the lug is crimped with, so the installer matches the black marking to the black die in the compression tool and gets a verified crimp. It doubles as a visual check during inspection and maintenance that the right connector and die were used on the 2/0 conductor.
4) Can I use a copper compression lug on aluminum conductor?
No. This is a copper-bodied lug built for 2/0 AWG copper conductor. Terminating aluminum cable requires a connector rated AL or AL9CU for that purpose; a copper-only barrel on aluminum is an improper termination. Order an aluminum or dual-rated lug for aluminum feeders.
5) Do I need a special tool to install these compression lugs?
Yes, these are compression (crimp) lugs, not mechanical set-screw lugs, so they need a hydraulic or battery compression tool with the die matching the black color key for 2/0. There is no set screw and no torque spec on the barrel. If you do not have a compression tool on the truck, a mechanical two-hole lug for 2/0 is the alternative.
6) Does this copper lug come insulated, or do I need to add a boot?
Bare copper, no insulation on the barrel or pad. If the termination needs covering, plan on heat shrink, tape or a separate insulating boot as part of the job. That also means the pad and barrel will be exposed for inspection after the crimp, which many inspectors prefer on medium-voltage work.
7) Why choose a long-barrel lug over a standard short-barrel one for a 2/0 feeder?
The long barrel takes more crimps over a longer compression zone, which raises contact area and pull-out strength. That is the version you want on vibrating equipment, motor terminations, generator and transfer switch leads, and anywhere the cable may see mechanical load. A standard barrel is fine for a static panel landing and takes less room in a crowded gutter; the long barrel needs more straight cable behind the pad.
8) What is the exact part number for the 2/0 AWG black Color Keyed two-hole lug with 1/2 inch holes?
Order MPN 54862BE. That is the Color Keyed / Blackburn 2/0 AWG two-hole long-barrel copper lug, black color key, 1/2 inch bolt size. Product of Mexico.
