Overview

The ABB Copper Parallel Splice, SKU 540002, is engineered for robust and reliable electrical connections in industrial and commercial settings. Constructed from high-strength copper alloy, this non-insulated splice offers exceptional electrical and mechanical performance. Its primary function is to join two copper conductors, allowing for wire repair or extension. The seamless tubular barrel ensures a consistent, high-quality crimp, while the internal wire stop guarantees proper conductor insertion depth. This parallel splice requires only one crimp to complete the connection, streamlining installation. The tin plating provides essential corrosion resistance, enhancing its longevity in various environments. The ABB 540002 accommodates a wire range from (3) #8 and (1) #14 AWG up to a maximum of (2) #4 AWG, with a circular mil range of 52,600 to 83,700 kcmil. Its compact dimensions include an overall length of 0.64 inches (16.25mm), an outer diameter of 0.521 inches (13.23mm), and an inner diameter of 0.396 inches (10.06mm). This splice is UL and CSA rated up to 600V per UL 486C and has a maximum recommended operating temperature of 302°F (150°C). It is an economical termination solution when insulation is not a requirement. Ideal for electrical contractors, maintenance professionals, and industrial technicians seeking dependable, high-performance connections.
