Blackburn M2D6M-2 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Blackburn M2D6M-2 motor lead disconnect used for?
It's the male half of a motor pigtail disconnect, used to terminate motor leads so a motor can be unplugged from its supply conductors instead of being spliced and re-taped every time it comes out. The M2D6M-2 is the 2-conductor, 6 AWG, size 2 male body. To make a complete connection you need the matching female half as well; the male alone will not terminate both sides of the joint.
2) What wire size does the Blackburn M2D6M-2 disconnect take?
It's built for 6 AWG conductors, two leads per body. Larger or smaller motor leads need a different size disconnect, since the barrels are sized to the conductor and won't crimp reliably on off-size wire.
3) Does the M2D6M-2 come as a pair with the female half, or is it sold singly?
It ships as the male body only, sold each. Plan on ordering the corresponding female half for every male you install, plus any insulating boot or tape the motor termination requires.
4) Is the Blackburn M2D6M-2 motor disconnect copper, and can I use it on aluminum motor leads?
The conductor barrels are copper with a tin plated finish, so it's intended for copper conductors. Tin plating protects the copper and improves the contact surface, but a copper-bodied terminal is not a dual-rated AL/CU connector, so don't put it on aluminum leads.
5) What does the blue color on this Blackburn motor pigtail disconnect mean?
Blue is the Color Keyed identifier for this size range in Blackburn's system, and it's how a crew on site matches the connector to the correct die and the correct mating half without reading fine print in a dark motor terminal box. The M2D6M-2 body is blue, size 2, for 6 AWG.
6) What is the exact part number and manufacturer for this 6 AWG male motor disconnect?
Blackburn, part number M2D6M-2, under the Color Keyed line. That's the number to quote on a purchase order or cross-reference against a distributor's stock.
7) Where is the Blackburn M2D6M-2 made? I need country of origin for a government submittal.
Manufactured in Mexico. That's the declared country of origin for procurement paperwork on public and institutional jobs.
