Overview

The ABB EACT-0300 is a tin-plated aluminum shear bolt connector designed for electrical power distribution applications. Rated for 15/35kV and operating within a 600-900 Amp range, this connector ensures reliable electrical continuity for conductors ranging from #2 to 300 kcmil. Its robust construction features a barrel body with a 1.18-inch (30mm) diameter and a length of 4.13 inches (105mm). The single-hole pad measures 1.42 inches (36mm) wide and 0.5 inches thick, with a pad hole diameter of 0.689 inches (17.5mm) to accommodate standard mounting hardware. Included with the EACT-0300 are three M14 x 11 round-bottom screws, each equipped with a 3/8-inch hex head. These screws are engineered to shear at a specific torque, providing a consistent and secure connection without the need for specialized tools or torque wrenches. The tin plating on the aluminum body offers enhanced corrosion resistance, crucial for maintaining connection integrity in various environmental conditions. This connector is suitable for use in substations, overhead lines, and other utility infrastructure where dependable conductor splicing and termination are essential. Its specific dimensions and ratings make it a practical choice for utility and industrial electrical contractors.
