How to Install the PA02 Pin Adapter

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for safely installing the PA02 Pin Adapter, designed to reliably terminate #2 AWG stranded aluminum conductors into mechanical connectors suitable for #4 AWG copper wire.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Wire brush, Crimping tool, Appropriate crimping dies (e.g., T&B Die Code 50 or Burndy Die Index BG/243), Screwdriver or wrench

Supplies needed:

PA02 Pin Adapter, #2 AWG stranded aluminum conductor, Mechanical connector (equipment lug)

  1. Prepare for Installation and Verify Compatibility

    WARNING: RISK OF SHOCK, DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE INSTALLATION. Select the PA02 Pin Adapter, ensuring it is suitable for #2 AWG aluminum wire and #4 AWG copper wire. Verify that the copper pig-tail length is sufficient for the equipment connector. Confirm that the mated insulating cover diameter and the overall Pin Adapter dimensions allow for proper clearance and wire bending space within the electrical equipment, adhering to National Electrical Code requirements.

  2. Prepare Conductor and Crimp Adapter

    Strip the aluminum conductor insulation to a length of 1 inch, ensuring not to nick or ring the conductor strands. Thoroughly scratch brush the stripped aluminum conductor to remove any oxide film. Insert the aluminum conductor fully into the compression barrel of the Pin Adapter. Select the correct crimping tool and die (e.g., T&B Die Code 50 or Burndy Die Index BG/243 for PA02). Crimp the connector, making the required number of crimps between the knurl or ink marks, compressing from the base of the socket toward the cable. Remove any flash and excess inhibitor.

  3. Install Insulating Cover and Connect to Equipment

    Slip the insulating cover completely over the compression barrel of the Pin Adapter to ensure minimum electrical spacing is maintained. Insert the copper pig-tail fully into the equipment's mechanical connector body. Tighten the set screw to the equipment manufacturer’s recommended torque. If no specific torque recommendation is provided, tighten to 50 inch-lbs for the PA02 adapter.
