Purpose-Built Copper Lug

The Burndy two-hole compression lug is manufactured for 2 AWG stranded copper conductors. Its barrel carries a brown colour code and die code 10 for quick identification during installation. The connector is CSA certified and UL listed to standards UL 486A-486B, rated for up to 35 kV AC and a maximum operating temperature of 194 degrees F. An inspection hole allows visual confirmation of full conductor insertion before crimping.

Build Integration

The straight tongue measures .6 in wide with a 1 in hole centre-to-centre spacing suited to 3/8 in studs. Overall length is 2.600 in, fitting standard barrel crimp tooling without modification. The crimp termination style creates a permanent, low-resistance joint that frees the installer from set-screw maintenance. Copper construction ensures compatibility with copper busbar and cable systems in commercial electrical infrastructure.

Target Installer

This lug suits electricians and panel builders terminating single 2 AWG copper runs in switchgear, motor control centres or renewable-energy combiners. It is not for aluminium conductors, smaller or larger wire gauges, or applications requiring angled tongues. Installers needing multi-conductor taps or bolted disconnects should look at alternative connector styles.

Questions about this item

At what temperature does the lug reach its maximum operating limit?

The lug is rated for a maximum operating temperature of 194 degrees Fahrenheit.

How much heat does the connection generate during continuous operation?

As a passive copper connector, it generates no heat of its own; temperature rise depends on the current carried and the quality of the crimp.

What crimp die code is required to install this lug correctly?

The lug requires a die code 10 crimp tool for proper termination on 2 AWG copper wire.
