Overview

The ABB Installation Products SKU 16100 is a full-tension compression splice engineered for reliable joining of ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced) and aluminum-alloy conductors. This splice is specifically designed for wire sizes 3/0 STR AAC (All Aluminum Conductor) and 3/0 (6/1) ACSR. With a substantial length of 17-7/8 inches, it provides ample surface area for secure and robust connections, ensuring electrical integrity and mechanical strength under full tension loads. Installation requires specific tooling, with the recommended dies being the 76H and 658. This product is suitable for overhead power transmission and distribution applications where conductor integrity is paramount. The full-tension design means the splice is capable of withstanding the same mechanical tension as the conductor itself, preventing premature failure and ensuring long-term performance in electrical infrastructure. ABB's commitment to quality in their Installation Products line ensures that this splice meets the stringent requirements for conductor splicing in critical electrical systems. Its aluminum construction offers excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance, vital for outdoor environments. The UNSPSC code for this product is 39121449.
