Overview

The ABB H40HPS Split-Bolt Connector with Spacer (SKU: H40HPS) is a heavy-duty electrical connector engineered for secure, long-lasting splices on copper, aluminum, and ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced) conductors. Designed for equal main and tap connections, this connector accommodates conductor sizes from 4/0 AWG down to 4 AWG for ACSR, and 4/0 Stranded to 4 Solid for copper and aluminum. It also supports minimum tap configurations with one maximum main conductor of 4 Solid, providing versatility for complex wiring setups. Constructed with a high-strength corrosion-resistant bronze alloy bolt and nut, the H40HPS ensures mechanical integrity and durability in demanding environments. The integrated spacer maintains proper conductor separation and alignment, reducing the risk of loosening or misalignment over time. The pressure bar is copper through 40H sizes, transitioning to copper alloy for 350 kcmil and above, ensuring consistent conductivity and mechanical strength across the full range of supported conductors. The H40HPS is tested and listed to UL486C and UL467 standards for grounding and direct burial applications, making it suitable for utility, industrial, and commercial installations where reliability is critical. Its split-bolt design allows for tool-free installation and easy re-entry for maintenance or modifications. The tin-plated finish enhances corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term performance in harsh or outdoor conditions. Ideal for power distribution, transmission, and grounding systems, the H40HPS connector is a trusted solution for electrical contractors, utility companies, and maintenance professionals requiring dependable conductor splicing and termination. Its compatibility with multiple conductor types and sizes eliminates the need for multiple connector types, streamlining inventory and reducing project complexity.
