Overview

The ABB Installation Products KL47-1 is a 3-1/2 inch aluminum service entrance compression splice designed for reliable electrical connections in utility and industrial installations. This splice accommodates aluminum-to-aluminum (AL to AL) and aluminum-to-copper (AL to CU) conductor applications, ensuring versatility for heavy-duty service requirements. End A supports 2/0 ASCR, 2/0 Stranded, and 3/0 Stranded Compact conductors with a diameter range of 0.448 to 0.414 inches. End B is engineered for 1/0 ASCR, 2/0 Stranded, and 3/0 Stranded Compact conductors within a diameter range of 0.398 to 0.368 inches. The gray color-coded sleeve provides quick identification during installation and maintenance. Constructed from high-conductivity aluminum, the KL47-1 features a solid center barrier and large chamfers for effortless cable insertion. The stabilized-nylon sleeve resists tool pressure and delivers reliable 600V insulation, while the prefilled oxide inhibitor prevents oxidation and moisture ingress. The center stop ensures proper conductor positioning, eliminating guesswork during installation. This splice complies with ANSI C119.4 standards when installed correctly on AL to AL or AL to CU conductors. It is compatible with popular mechanical and hydraulic crimping tools, making it a cost-effective solution for reducing conductor sizes in commercial service applications. The 840 die series ensures consistent, secure crimps for long-term performance in demanding environments. Ideal for overhead service entrances, the KL47-1 is a low-cost alternative to traditional reducing sleeves, offering durability and ease of use in high-current applications. Its compact design and color-coded markings simplify inventory management and field installation.
