Blackburn 35501 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Blackburn 35501 a copper or aluminum lug?
The Blackburn 35501 mechanical lug connector is copper bodied. Copper-bodied mechanical lugs are used on copper conductors; if your run is aluminum or you are mixing aluminum and copper, you want a connector rated AL9CU rather than a copper-only lug.
2) Is the Blackburn 35501 lug UL listed?
It carries UL file E9809. That is the listing number an inspector or a specifier will look for on a mechanical connector submittal, so the 35501 can be used where the drawing calls for a UL listed lug.
3) What is a mechanical lug connector like the Blackburn 35501 used for, and when should I use a compression lug instead?
A mechanical lug terminates a conductor with a set screw that clamps the wire in the barrel, so it installs with a hex key or torque wrench and no crimp tool, and it can be backed off and re-terminated. The 35501 is that kind of connector. If you need a permanent, tool-crimped termination, or the spec calls for compression connectors on a switchgear or transformer pad, use a compression (crimp) lug instead, because a set screw connector is not a substitute where compression is specified.
4) What part number do I order for the Blackburn mechanical lug, and is it sold individually?
Order Blackburn 35501. It is sold each, so quantity one is a single lug, not a pack. Terminating both ends of a run or a three-phase set means ordering one per conductor termination.
5) Where is the Blackburn 35501 connector made?
The 35501 mechanical lug is manufactured in Mexico. That matters if your job carries domestic-sourcing language such as a Buy American clause, since a Mexico-origin part will not satisfy it.
