Overview

The ABB CTS407 is a copper full-tension distribution compression splice designed for 4/0 AWG stranded copper conductors. This splice ensures reliable, permanent connections in overhead and underground distribution systems, meeting ANSI C119.4 Class A compression standards. The U168 die configuration provides full-tension joint integrity, minimizing electrical resistance and heat generation at splice points. With a 7-1/4" length and 7/8" diameter, the CTS407 accommodates standard compression tooling for efficient installation. Ideal for utility, industrial, and commercial power distribution applications where high-current carrying capacity and mechanical strength are critical. Compatible with copper conductors only; not suitable for aluminum or mixed-metal connections. The splice body is manufactured from high-conductivity copper alloy, ensuring long-term performance in harsh environmental conditions. No additional sealing or insulation required for outdoor installations when used with ABB-approved compression tools.
