Burndy Long Barrel Telecom CU Lug 2 Hole 2/0AWG

Burndy Long Barrel Copper Lug

This Burndy lug is a copper compression connector built for commercial electrical installations. It accepts a single 2/0 AWG stranded copper conductor and provides a two-hole mounting pattern for secure termination. The straight tongue design and long barrel length support reliable crimp connections in telecom and power distribution panels.

Upgrade from single-hole or short-barrel lugs

The two-hole configuration with one-inch center spacing resists rotation and vibration better than single-hole alternatives. Long barrel length increases contact area for lower resistance across the crimp joint. The jump is worth it when mechanical stability and consistent conductivity are required for permanent infrastructure.

Practical limits of crimp termination

Maximum operating temperature is 194 degrees F and voltage rating reaches 35 kV, so the lug suits medium-voltage circuits within that thermal envelope. Copper construction limits use to copper conductors only; aluminum wire requires a different connector. No inspection hole means visual verification of wire insertion must occur before crimping. Standards met include CSA certification and UL 486A-486B listing.
