Overview

The ABB AC 500 is a straight splice designed for aluminum conductors, specifically for ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced) types 397.5 (26/7) and 477 (18/1). This splice is rated for concentric 477-500 and compact 600 applications. It features a length of 7-19/32 inches and a diameter of 1-5/16 inches, with a bore depth of 3-37/64 inches. The AC 500 is dual-rated, making it suitable for both aluminum and copper conductors, offering versatility in installation. It comes pre-filled with an oxide inhibitor to ensure reliable electrical connections and prevent corrosion. Installation requires specific dies, including 106A, 300, 317, 1-5/16, and 14A. Manufactured by ABB - Installation Products, this splice is a direct component for electrical power transmission and distribution infrastructure. Its precise dimensions and dual-rating capability streamline the splicing process for qualified electrical professionals working with these conductor sizes. The inclusion of oxide inhibitor is a critical feature for long-term connection integrity in overhead and underground power systems.
