Blackburn L125HP-BB Mechanical Cable Lug 1/0 Awg Copper

Product Description

The BLACKBURN L125HP-BB is a one-hole mechanical cable lug designed for making secure, code-compliant terminations in electrical distribution and branch-circuit wiring applications. Constructed from cold forged tin plated electrolytic copper, this lug accommodates a single conductor ranging from 8 AWG solid to 1/0 AWG stranded copper. The straight pad design features a single bolt hole and a hex head zinc plated steel clamping screw, providing consistent clamping force across the conductor range. The compact, one-piece construction minimizes installation space while maintaining the mechanical strength required for permanent terminations. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors are the primary installers of this component.

This lug is suited for residential and light commercial electrical work where copper conductor terminations are required at panelboards, switchgear, bus bars, and equipment terminals. The 1.5-inch overall length keeps the assembly profile low in tight enclosures. The straight pad orientation allows direct flat-surface mounting to standard lugged bus bars and terminal blocks. The tin plating on the copper body resists oxidation and supports long-term connection integrity in standard indoor electrical environments.

Key Features

• Cold forged tin plated electrolytic copper body for strength and corrosion resistance
• Accepts 8 AWG solid minimum to 1/0 AWG stranded maximum copper conductors
• One-piece construction eliminates assembly variables and improves mechanical durability
• Hex head zinc plated steel clamping screw for use with standard hand tools
• Straight pad with single bolt hole for direct surface mounting
• UL 486A and CSA listed for code-compliant installations

Compatibility

Designed for use with copper conductors from 8 AWG solid to 1/0 AWG stranded. Listed under UL 486A and CSA standards, making it suitable for NEC-compliant termination applications in single-conductor installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements and local codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit before making any termination. Use a properly sized hex key or socket to torque the clamping screw against the conductor. Do not use this lug with aluminum conductors, as the lug body and listing are rated for copper only.
