Overview

ABB X 1 U 102-8 SOL uninsulated aluminum service entrance compression splices are designed for reliable, high-conductivity connections in overhead and underground power distribution systems. These splices accommodate a 1/0 stranded ACSR conductor on the yellow-capped side and a 1/0 solid to 2 AWG solid conductor on the red-capped side, ensuring compatibility with common distribution conductor sizes. The 8-inch length provides ample clearance for proper installation and maintenance. Installation requires ABB dies 840, TX, 249, 76, or 11A, ensuring tool compatibility with industry-standard compression systems. The design includes oil stop and oxide inhibitor features to maintain long-term electrical integrity and prevent moisture ingress or corrosion at the splice interface. These splices are uninsulated, making them ideal for applications where insulation is not required or where bare conductor connections are standard, such as service entrances, transformer taps, and secondary distribution lines. The aluminum construction matches typical ACSR and solid aluminum conductors, reducing galvanic corrosion risks and ensuring consistent performance across temperature cycles. For optimal results, use with ABB’s recommended oxide inhibitor to enhance conductivity and longevity.
