Overview

The ABB BC2020-BB C-Crimp Copper Compression Connector is a high-conductivity copper connector designed for secure mechanical and electrical connections in branch circuits, panelboards, and distribution equipment. This connector accommodates 1/0 SOL to 2/0 STR main runs and 1/0 STR to 2/0 STR tap applications, eliminating the need for separate connectors when transitioning between solid and stranded copper conductors. The 15-16 inch length provides ample wire management space in tight enclosures while maintaining proper creepage and clearance distances, and the 1-11/32 inch height ensures compatibility with standard electrical panels and junction boxes. The C-crimp design ensures consistent compression force and long-term reliability, meeting ASTM B308/B308M standards for electrical and mechanical performance. The connector is compatible with TBM14M or TBM15I crimping tools using 15501A dies, ensuring precise installation and optimal performance. Its copper construction provides superior conductivity and corrosion resistance, reducing the risk of overheating and electrical failures. The connector’s design allows for efficient installation in confined spaces, reducing labor time and material costs. The BC2020-BB is part of ABB’s Installation Products line, known for durable, high-quality electrical components that enhance system reliability and safety.
