Overview

The ABB CSP250 Type Copper Splice is a short-barrel compression connector engineered for reliable, high-voltage electrical connections up to 35kV. Designed for copper conductors sized at 250 kcmil, this splice features a seamless copper body with tin plating for enhanced corrosion resistance in industrial and building applications. The 2.25-inch length and yellow die color code ensure quick identification and compatibility with standard crimping tools, including Blackburn®, Burndy®, T&B®, and Anderson® dies. The specially chamfered barrel design simplifies installation, making it ideal for confined spaces where compact splices are required. Manufactured by ABB Installation Products, the CSP250 meets Subpart 111.60-17 of the Federal Register's Coast Guard Electrical Engineering Rules and Regulations. Suitable for use with AWG stranded, flexible cable, welding cable, and portable cord, this splice delivers consistent conductivity and mechanical strength in medium-voltage systems. Whether deployed in power distribution, substations, or industrial electrical systems, the CSP250 provides a secure, long-lasting termination solution for 250 kcmil copper conductors.
