Blackburn CTL1-12 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Blackburn CTL1-12 compression lug take?
The CTL1-12 is sized for 1 AWG conductor. It's a one-hole, short-barrel copper compression lug, so the barrel is crimped onto the cable rather than set screwed. Using it on a conductor other than 1 AWG will not give you a proper crimp.
2) Can I use this copper lug on aluminum conductor?
No. The CTL1-12 is a copper-only compression lug, rated for copper conductor. For aluminum or dual-rated work you need a lug marked AL9CU or aluminum-specific, along with the required joint compound.
3) Why is this lug green, and does the color mean anything for crimping?
Green is the die color code on the CTL1-12 barrel. Compression lugs are color coded so the installer can match the barrel to the correct die in the crimp tool. Set your hydraulic or battery crimper to the green die group for this one.
4) Short barrel or long barrel lug, which do I need?
The CTL1-12 is the short barrel version, one crimp on the barrel. Short barrel is what you use where space behind the terminal is tight, such as inside a panel gutter or a crowded ground bar enclosure. Long barrel two-crimp lugs are chosen where the connection needs added pull-out strength and there's room for the extra length.
5) Does a CTL1-12 come as a single piece or in a bag of multiples?
The CTL1-12 sells each, one lug per unit, so order the exact count of terminations you have. MPN is CTL1-12 and it's made in Mexico.
