Color-Keyed 54101 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire sizes do these Color Keyed one-hole copper compression lugs take?
The Color Keyed standard barrel compression lug is sized for 14-10 AWG copper conductor. One barrel covers that range, so a crew pulling 14, 12, and 10 AWG on the same job can standardize on the single part number 54101 rather than stocking three. Outside 14-10 AWG you need a different barrel size.
2) Are these Blackburn Color Keyed lugs UL listed?
Yes, they are UL listed under file E9809. That is the detail an inspector or an institutional spec reviewer asks for on a panel or MCC termination, so note the file number on your submittal.
3) Do these need to be crimped, or can they be set with a set screw?
These are compression lugs, not mechanical set screw lugs. The barrel has to be crimped with the proper die for the color code and wire range, which is the whole point of the Color Keyed system: the color on the lug tells you which die to pick, so you get a repeatable crimp instead of guessing. If you want a connector that can be installed with a hex key and no tooling, you need a mechanical lug instead.
4) Is copper the right lug for aluminum conductor?
No. This lug is copper and is intended for copper conductor. Landing aluminum wire in a copper-only barrel is the wrong connector; for aluminum or dual-rated runs look for a connector marked AL9CU or AL/CU for the conductor you are terminating.
5) Can I use these copper lugs on 600V branch circuits as well as medium voltage?
The lug carries a 35 kV voltage rating, so standard 600V panel, feeder, and control wiring is well inside its range. The rating is a ceiling, not a requirement, which is why the same connector shows up on residential panel landings and on medium voltage terminations.
6) Are these compression lugs insulated, or do I need to sleeve them after crimping?
They ship bare, with no insulation on the barrel or tongue. If the installation needs the barrel covered, plan on heat shrink or tape as a separate step. Bare copper is usually what you want anyway where the lug lands on a ground bar or in an enclosure with adequate clearance.
7) How long is the lug body on the 14-10 AWG one-hole version?
Overall lug length is 1.23 inches on the 1/4 inch stud version, part 54101. That matters in a crowded gutter or a shallow enclosure where the tongue and barrel have to clear adjacent terminations and the cover.
8) Is this the same thing as a Blackburn lug?
Yes. Color Keyed is the sub brand and the product is labeled Color Keyed / Blackburn, so a spec or a submittal calling out either name points at the same connector family. Order by the part number, 54101, for the 14-10 AWG one-hole 1/4 inch stud version.
