KLU35

Overview

The Burndy KLU35 is a mechanical terminal lug designed for connecting copper conductors ranging from 14 AWG solid/stranded to 6 AWG stranded. It features an offset tongue style and accepts a #10 stud with a single slot screw. Constructed from high conductivity copper alloy, this unplated component supports voltage ratings up to 600 V and current ratings between 25 A and 70 A. The overall length measures 1.24 inches, providing a convenient range-taking design for reliable electrical contact in various equipment pad or bar applications.

Feature Summary

• Offset tongue design facilitates joining a wide range of cable sizes to equipment pads or bars
• High conductivity copper alloy material ensures long-lasting and reliable electrical contact
• Convenient range-taking construction accommodates multiple conductor sizes within a single lug unit

Applications

• Connecting copper cables to equipment pads
• Terminating conductors on pressure bars
• Joining copper cables to terminal blocks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required conductor size range and stud configuration. Confirm that the unplated copper alloy finish aligns with environmental requirements. Ensure the #10 stud compatibility matches existing hardware. Cross-reference the 600 V rating against system voltage constraints. Validate the 25-70 A amperage rating against load calculations before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a single lug must accommodate varying conductor sizes between 14 AWG and 6 AWG. The offset tongue is suitable for tight spaces where straight lugs may not fit. Choose this component for applications requiring high conductivity without plating. Ensure the #10 stud hole diameter matches the mounting hardware. Consider the 600 V rating for low-voltage distribution systems.

Part Context

The KLU35 belongs to the Burndy Type KLU Scrulug family of mechanical terminal lugs. This series is characterized by its range-taking capability and use of high-conductivity copper alloys. The KLU35 specifically addresses the need for versatile connections in copper cable installations, offering a standardized solution for joining conductors to fixed equipment interfaces.
