Overview

The ABB CSC73 is a 2-inch aluminum service entrance compression splice designed for reliable, high-current connections in residential and commercial electrical systems. This splice features a C2BB cover and is dual-rated for both aluminum (ASCR) and copper conductors, accommodating 1-2 strand wire sizes. The 5/8-inch die ensures proper compression for secure, long-lasting terminations. Engineered by ABB Installation Products, the CSC73 meets industry standards for service entrance applications, providing a durable solution for load centers, meter sockets, and branch circuit connections. Its compression design eliminates the need for soldering or crimping tools, reducing installation time while maintaining electrical integrity. The red-colored ends simplify identification in crowded panels, and the compression mechanism ensures consistent performance across varying environmental conditions. Ideal for new construction or service upgrades, this splice is a cost-effective alternative to mechanical lugs or twist-on connectors.
