Overview

The ABB Copper Parallel Splice (SKU: 540600) is a cast-copper, two-way splice connector engineered for heavy-duty electrical applications requiring reliable, high-current connections. Designed to join two solid or stranded copper conductors, this non-insulated splice accommodates a wire range of (2) 2/0 AWG, (2) 3/0 AWG, up to a maximum of (2) 4/0 AWG and (2) 2/0 AWG, with a circular mil range of 601,800 to 689,400. The splice features a seamless tubular barrel with a brazed seam to prevent splitting during crimping, ensuring long-term durability under mechanical stress. Constructed from high-conductivity copper and finished with tin plating, this splice provides superior corrosion resistance and electrical performance in demanding environments. The internal wire stop ensures proper conductor insertion depth, while the expanded wire entry accommodates wires with thicker insulation. The splice is rated for 600V to 35kV applications, making it suitable for power distribution, industrial machinery, and infrastructure projects where secure, high-current connections are critical. Installation is streamlined with a single crimp required to complete the splice, reducing labor time and minimizing the risk of installation errors. The color-coded design (black for 2/0 AWG, orange for 3/0 AWG, purple for 4/0 AWG) simplifies identification and inventory management. Compatible with standard crimping tooling (die sets 15CA45R, 15CA49R, 15CA54R), this splice is a cost-effective solution for repairing or extending existing wiring in heavy-duty electrical systems. Key applications include: - Power distribution systems - Industrial machinery wiring - Infrastructure and utility projects - Renewable energy installations - Heavy-duty motor and generator connections
  • Accommodates (2) 2/0 AWG, (2) 3/0 AWG, and (2) 4/0 AWG copper conductors
  • Circular mil range: 601,800 to 689,400
  • Tin-plated copper construction for corrosion resistance
  • Single-crimp installation with internal wire stop for proper alignment
