Blackburn CTL6002-12 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Blackburn CTL6002-12 compression lug take?
The CTL6002-12 is sized for 600 kcmil copper conductor. It's a one-conductor-per-lug compression barrel, so a 600 kcmil cable goes in the barrel and gets crimped. Running a smaller conductor in it is not a substitute for the correct die-matched lug for that size.
2) Is the CTL6002-12 copper or aluminum, and can I use it on aluminum cable?
It's a copper lug, tin plated. Copper compression lugs are for copper conductor. For aluminum or a dual-rated run you want an AL9CU rated connector instead, since matching the lug material to the conductor is what keeps the crimp from corroding at the interface.
3) Why choose a two-hole lug instead of a one-hole lug on a 600 kcmil feeder?
Two bolt holes keep the lug from rotating under torque and under fault current, which is why they're the common choice on large feeders and on grounding and bonding connections where the termination has to stay put. The CTL6002-12 is the two-hole pattern on 1/2 inch stud centers. A single-hole lug is quicker to land but can spin on the pad, and many equipment and grounding pads are drilled for the two-hole pattern anyway.
4) What does the green color on this Blackburn lug mean?
Green is the color code on the barrel identifying the crimp die and die index for that conductor size, so the installer matches the tool die to the lug rather than guessing. On the CTL6002-12 that green code corresponds to the 600 kcmil barrel.
5) What's the difference between a short barrel and a standard long barrel lug?
A short barrel takes fewer crimps and takes up less length behind the pad, which matters when you're terminating 600 kcmil in a tight gutter or panel where there isn't room to swing a crimper or to bend the cable. The CTL6002-12 is the short barrel version. A long barrel gives more crimps and more pull-out resistance and is the pick where cabinet space allows it.
6) Does the CTL6002-12 come with mounting bolts?
No hardware is included with the lug. You supply the 1/2 inch bolts, nuts, and washers, or use the hardware already on the equipment pad or ground bar.
7) Is the CTL6002-12 sold individually or in a bag?
Sold each. One lug per unit, so on a three phase plus neutral 600 kcmil termination you order four, plus one more per equipment ground you're landing.
8) What is the exact part number and manufacturer for this 600 kcmil two-hole lug?
Blackburn part number CTL6002-12. Copper, tin plated, short barrel, two holes on 1/2 inch stud size, 600 kcmil. Made in Mexico.
