Overview

The ABB FBS2H150A1-30 is a 2-hole NEMA flexible jumper braid designed for high-current electrical connections where vibration resistance and flexibility are required. This assembly consists of 6 braided copper conductors, each 1.5 inches wide, providing a total cross-sectional area optimized for current-carrying capacity while maintaining flexibility. The 30-inch length allows for installation flexibility between connection points, while the 3.5-inch ferrule length ensures secure crimping and termination stability. Key specifications include a center-to-center hole spacing of 1.75 inches, with each hole measuring 9/16 inch in diameter. The distance from the hole to the end of the ferrule is 5/8 inch, and the overall thickness of the assembly is 1/2 inch. These dimensions make it compatible with standard NEMA mounting configurations and terminal blocks. This jumper braid is ideal for applications requiring reliable, low-resistance connections in industrial control panels, motor starters, and power distribution systems. The braided construction minimizes skin effect losses at higher frequencies and resists fatigue from repeated thermal cycling or mechanical stress. The copper material ensures high conductivity, while the flexible design accommodates misalignment between connection points.
