Overview

The ABB Copper Two-Way Splice (SKU 54806) is a high-voltage splicing solution designed for reliable conductor termination in industrial and commercial power distribution systems. This long barrel splice is constructed from tin-plated copper, providing excellent corrosion resistance and ensuring durable electrical connections for stranded copper conductors up to #4 AWG. The splice features a 1.75-inch length and 0.39-inch diameter, optimized for high-voltage applications up to 35kV. Its long barrel design maximizes crimp points, delivering superior wire pull-out strength and long-term performance. An integrated inspection window enables visual confirmation of full conductor insertion, ensuring a secure and complete connection. The gray color code corresponds to Die Code 29, aligning with industry-standard crimp die selection for consistent termination quality. This splice is suitable for applications requiring robust splicing in electrical installations, machinery, and power distribution systems where dependable conductor termination is critical. It is engineered to meet stringent performance requirements in demanding environments, including those with high mechanical stress or exposure to moisture and contaminants. The tin plating enhances conductivity while preventing oxidation, ensuring stable electrical performance over time. The splice’s dimensions are precisely calibrated to accommodate #4 AWG conductors, providing a tight fit that minimizes resistance and heat generation. The 35kV rating confirms its capability to handle medium-voltage applications, making it a versatile choice for power distribution networks.
  • Tin-plated copper construction for corrosion resistance
  • Long barrel design for maximum crimp points and pull-out strength
  • Integrated inspection window for visual conductor insertion confirmation
  • Gray color code (Die Code 29) for standard crimp die compatibility
  • Suitable for stranded copper conductors up to #4 AWG and 35kV applications
