Overview

The ABB SNG 22 Aluminum Semi-Tension Neutral Compression Splice is a robust, compression-type splice designed for joining aluminum conductors in electrical distribution systems. Engineered by ABB Installation Products, this splice ensures reliable, low-resistance connections for ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced) 2-strand conductors, making it ideal for neutral and grounding applications in overhead power lines, substations, and utility infrastructure. The SNG 22 is part of ABB’s Common Die Series, compatible with a range of installation dies (TU, 52, 5/8, BG, 243, 8A) to accommodate varying conductor sizes and configurations. Its aluminum construction provides excellent corrosion resistance and conductivity, while the semi-tension design maintains mechanical integrity under load. This splice is a cost-effective solution for permanent connections where minimal maintenance and long-term reliability are critical. Unlike traditional bolted or twisted splices, the compression design eliminates the risk of loosening over time, reducing the need for re-tightening and associated downtime. The SNG 22 is optimized for use with stranded aluminum conductors only, ensuring compatibility with common utility-grade ACSR cables. With ABB’s reputation for precision engineering, this splice meets stringent industry standards for electrical performance and mechanical durability, making it a trusted choice for utility contractors, electrical engineers, and maintenance teams.
