  • TypeCommercial
  • CSA certified and UL listed for code compliance
  • Long barrel design improves crimp contact on 500 kcmil copper
  • Two-hole mounting with 1 in spacing secures connections
  • Rated 35 kV and 194 °F for demanding telecom use
  • Straight tongue and 1.55 in width fit standard studs

Long-Barrel Telecom Lug

This Burndy compression lug accepts a single 500 kcmil stranded copper conductor. The straight tongue carries two holes spaced one inch centre-to-centre for 3/8-inch studs. It is CSA certified and UL listed to UL 486A-486B for commercial electrical installations.

Build Integration

The lug terminates a heavy copper cable directly onto a busbar or terminal block without an intermediate connector. Its long barrel provides extended crimp length for mechanical strength, while the straight tongue keeps the cable run inline. No inspection hole is present, so visual verification of conductor insertion must be done before crimping.

Included Benefits

The brown colour code and die code 20 identify the correct crimp tooling for a 500 kcmil conductor, reducing installation errors. Copper construction ensures low resistance at voltages up to 35 kV and continuous operation at 194 degrees F. The tongue width of 1.55 inches matches standard two-hole mounting patterns.
