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 compliant electrical connection.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Wire brush, Crimping tool (hydraulic or mechanical)

Supplies needed:

ASP AL9CU Compression Splice, Stranded aluminum or copper cable

  1. Prepare for Installation and Verify Components

    WARNING: Disconnect all power to the circuit before beginning installation to prevent risk of electric shock. Ensure the installation is performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Verify the wire size marked on the aluminum splice matches the actual cable size to be used.

  2. Strip Cable Insulation

    Carefully strip the cable insulation to the appropriate length, ensuring not to nick or damage the cable strands during the process.

  3. Brush Cable Conductors

    Thoroughly wire brush the cable conductors that will be inserted into the connector to ensure good electrical contact. The document references ABB catalog number WWB1 for a suitable wire brush.

  4. Insert Cable into Splice

    Fully insert the prepared cable into the compression splice barrel. WARNING: Do not remove the oxide inhibitor compound from the splice barrel, as insufficient compound can result in an unsafe connection. This compound contains petroleum distillates and small metal particles; avoid prolonged skin contact.

  5. Crimp the Splice

    Consult the 'Tool and Die Index' in the documentation to select the correct crimping tool and die combination for your specific cable size. Crimp the connector the specified number of times shown in the chart, spacing crimps uniformly along the splice. For splices, make the first crimp just outside the knurl on each side of the center.

  6. Clean Excess Inhibitor

    Wipe off any excess oxide inhibitor compound from the exterior of the crimped splice. If skin contact occurs, wash immediately with soap and water. Consult a physician if swallowed or contact with eyes.
