AL Compression Terminal for 250 kcmil

The Burndy AL Compression Terminal is a single-hole lug designed for 250 kcmil stranded copper or aluminium conductors. It provides a crimp termination for commercial and industrial power circuits rated up to 35 kV. The barrel carries colour code red and die code 324 for tool selection. UL 486A-486B listing and CSA certification confirm compliance with North American safety standards.

Thermal and electrical ratings

The terminal is rated for a maximum operating temperature of 194 degrees Fahrenheit under normal load. Aluminium construction keeps resistance low while avoiding dissimilar-metal corrosion when joining aluminium or copper conductors. The straight tongue and 1.26 inch width allow a clean bolted connection to a 1/2 inch stud without insulation displacement. No inspection hole is present, so visual verification relies on die-code marking after crimp.

Build integration

The 3.800 inch overall length fits standard panel layouts where space between bus bars is limited. A single mounting hole frees the installer from aligning multiple fastener patterns. The lug accepts only 250 kcmil conductors, so builders needing smaller or larger wire sizes must select a different barrel. Crimp-tool compatibility follows die code 324, which is not included with the terminal.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Burndy AL compression terminal and what is the common mistake?

Crimp the terminal using a die code 324 tool; the step often missed is confirming the barrel is fully seated before compressing.

What maintenance or replacement will the Burndy AL compression terminal need over time?

Inspect the crimp joint periodically for corrosion or loosening; replace the terminal if the aluminum barrel shows oxidation or the connection overheats.

What limit appears first on the Burndy AL compression terminal during sustained high-current use?

The 194 °F maximum operating temperature is typically reached before the 35 kV voltage rating becomes a concern.
