Copper mechanical lug with two hex-head terminals for 3/8 inch stud

Burndy

Burndy QPX2828 two-conductor copper lug, 3/8 in stud

SKU CH-Q3WJ-9YS9E

A copper mechanical lug accepting two conductors from 1 AWG to 4/0 AWG on a 3/8 in stud, rated 600 V and 194 °F

  • Product typeElectrical Connectors
  • Handles two copper conductors up to 4/0 AWG for heavy-duty power distribution
  • Rated 600 V and 194 °F for reliable performance in demanding electrical systems
  • Secure 3/8 in stud mounting with hex head for strong mechanical connections
  • Pure copper body ensures excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance
  • Dual-termination design simplifies splicing or tapping without extra hardware

Burndy QPX2828 Copper Mechanical Lug

This Burndy QPX2828 mechanical lug connects two copper conductors in electrical installations. It accepts stranded copper wire sizes ranging from 1 AWG to 4/0 AWG. The connector body is made from copper and features a hex head for secure tightening. It is rated for a maximum operating temperature of 194 degrees F and a maximum voltage of 600 V.

Suited for dual-conductor copper terminations

Electricians and maintenance technicians terminating two copper cables on a single 3/8 inch stud will find this lug appropriate. It is not suitable for aluminium conductors or for applications requiring more than two conductor connections. Buyers needing a different stud size or a higher voltage rating should look at alternative connectors.

3/8 inch stud size for two conductors

The defining specification is the 3/8 inch stud size combined with a two-conductor capacity. This determines compatibility with the specific bus bar or terminal block in your assembly. Verify the stud dimension and conductor count before purchase to ensure correct fit.

Questions about this item

Does the Burndy QPX2828 lug generate noticeable heat when carrying full load continuously?

The lug is rated for a maximum operating temperature of 194 Degrees F, so it is designed to handle full-load current without excessive temperature rise.

What wire size and tools are required to install the QPX2828 two-conductor lug?

It accepts stranded copper from 1 AWG up to 4/0 AWG and uses a hex-head screw, so a suitable hex driver or wrench is needed for termination.

Will this copper lug work reliably with older aluminium busbars or panels?

The body material is copper and it is specified for copper conductors only; connecting dissimilar metals requires a bi-metal connector to avoid galvanic corrosion.
