Overview

The ABB 60930 Aluminum Reducing Splice Connector is a UL 486A/B listed electrical connector engineered for professional splicing of copper and aluminum conductors. This tin-plated aluminum connector is designed to join Copper Wire Size 2 (AWG) with Aluminum Wire Size 1/0 (AWG), providing a secure, corrosion-resistant connection in industrial and commercial electrical systems. Constructed from 6061T-6 aluminum alloy, the 60930 features electro-tin plating to minimize contact resistance and ensure reliable conductivity. The connector is rated for 600V (2000V max per UL486B) with a temperature rating of 90°C, making it suitable for demanding applications where durability and performance are critical. The tan die color code (Die Code 50) allows for quick identification during installation and maintenance. With a pre-filled oxide-inhibiting joint compound, this connector seals out air and moisture to prevent surface oxidation, extending service life. The clear PVC insulation eliminates the need for additional taping while enabling visual inspection of conductor insertion. Ideal for maintenance, repair, and new installations, the ABB 60930 reduces inventory requirements by accommodating multiple wire sizes in a single connector. Trust ABB Installation Products for dependable electrical connections in harsh environments.

How to Install the 60930 Two-Way Reducing Splicer

Instructions for installing and connecting the 60930 two-way reducing splicer using aluminum or copper cables.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Wire brush or emery cloth, Crimping tool (specified in Table 1), Insulating tools (specified in Table 1)

Supplies needed:

ALUMA-SHIELD® Aluminum Joint Compound (if not pre-installed), Shrink tubing or adhesive pad (for insulation)

  1. Prepare the Cable

    Strip the insulation from the cable to the length specified in Table 1. Be careful not to nick the cable strands. Smear a thin layer of ALUMA-SHIELD® Aluminum Joint Compound on the cable. Use a wire brush or emery cloth to clean the cable through the compound to remove surface oxide.

  2. Insert Cable into Splicer

    WARNING: Do not remove compound from the splice barrel. Remove the protective caps from the ends of the splice barrel. Insert the prepared cable into the connector until it stops. The insertion length should approximate the stripped length of the cable.

  3. Crimp the Connection

    CAUTION: Using improper installing dies may result in a malfunctioning connection. Select the correct installing die and the required number of compressions as specified in Table 1. Insert the connector into the die and compress. Start crimping near the center of the connector and work towards the end. Repeat compressions as required.

  4. Finish and Insulate

    After crimping, remove any sharp edges, flashes, or burrs from the connection. Insulate the connection using the methods specified in Table 1, such as shrink tubing or an adhesive pad.
