Overview

The ABB Installation Products Type ASP Aluminum Splice (SKU: ASP350) is a high-performance, medium-voltage splicing solution engineered for reliable electrical connections in power distribution and transmission systems. Designed for 350 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors (concentric, compressed, or compact), this splice ensures secure terminations up to 35kV when paired with proper high-voltage insulation techniques. Constructed from high-conductivity seamless aluminum tubing, the ASP350 delivers superior electrical performance and corrosion resistance, with tin plating to prevent oxidation at connection points. The splice features chamfered barrels for easier installation and is prefilled with an oxide-inhibiting compound to maintain long-term conductivity. With a compact length of 3-7/8 inches, it fits in confined spaces while meeting stringent electrical safety standards. The brown die color code ensures correct tooling selection for crimping, critical for maintaining connection integrity and preventing electrical faults. UL® Listed when installed with Blackburn®, Burndy®, T&B®, or Anderson tools, the ASP350 is ideal for utility infrastructure, industrial power systems, and renewable energy applications requiring robust, high-voltage splicing solutions.

How to Install ASP AL9CU Compression Splices

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing ASP AL9CU aluminum compression splices for stranded aluminum and copper cables, ensuring a safe and secure electrical connection.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Wire brush, Crimping tool, Dies

Supplies needed:

ASP AL9CU aluminum compression splice, Stranded aluminum or copper cable

  1. Prepare for Installation and Verify Components

    WARNING: Risk of shock, disconnect power before installation. CAUTION: Product should be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Check the wire size marked on the aluminum splice to ensure it is the correct connector for the actual cable size to be used.

  2. Prepare the Cable

    Strip the cable insulation, taking care not to nick the cable strands. Wire brush the cable side that will be inserted into the connector. Use a wire brush such as ABB catalog number WWB1.

  3. Insert and Crimp the Cable

    WARNING: Do not remove oxide inhibitor from the splice barrel. Insufficient compound can result in an unsafe connection. Fully insert the prepared cable into the connector. Refer to the Tool and Die Index to select the appropriate tool and die combination for your cable size. Crimp the connector the number of times shown on the chart for your selected tool/die combination. For splices, make the first crimp just outside the knurl on each side of the center and space crimps uniformly along the splice.

  4. Finalize Connection

    Wipe off any excess oxide inhibitor from the connection. WARNING: The oxide inhibitor compound contains petroleum distillates and small metal particles. Avoid prolonged skin contact and wash with soap and water if contact occurs. Consult a physician if swallowed or contact with eyes.
