How to Install and Crimp NSI Aluminum Compression Connectors

Install an NSI aluminum compression lug or splice connector on aluminum conductors. Select the correct connector size, prepare the conductor, insert it fully, and crimp it using the approved tool and die set.

Tools needed:

Wire stripper, Wire brush, Approved crimp tool (NSI N12ID, N1240 series, Greenlee EK/RK/HK1240, Burndy Y-35, Y750, PAT 750)

Supplies needed:

Correctly sized aluminum lug or splice connector, Aluminum conductor, Approved die set for the selected connector, Cleaning materials for the stripped conductor

  1. Select the correct connector

    Choose the proper aluminum lug or splice connector for the conductor size before starting. Verify that the connector matches the wire range in the chart and that the tool/die combination is approved for that connector. Do not use an undersized or incompatible connector.

  2. Strip the conductor to the required length

    Carefully strip the insulation from the conductor without nicking or damaging the strands. Strip only enough insulation so the conductor can be completely inserted into the connector barrel and fill it fully. Use the strip length specified for the connector series and wire size.

  3. Clean the stripped conductor

    Wire brush the stripped portion of the conductor to remove oxide films and contamination. Make sure the exposed conductor is clean before insertion, since aluminum oxide can reduce conductivity and connection quality.

  4. Insert the conductor fully into the barrel

    Insert the cleaned conductor completely into the connector barrel until it is fully seated. Confirm that the stripped portion fills the barrel and that no bare conductor is left exposed beyond the connector body.

  5. Crimp the connector with the approved tool

    Crimp the connector using the approved tool and die set for the selected connector series. Follow the manufacturer’s suggested crimp locations marked on the barrel, and apply the required number of crimps per side for splice connectors. For 1000 MCM connectors, use 15-ton tools.

  6. Verify the finished connection

    Inspect the completed crimp to confirm the connector is secure and the conductor remains fully seated. Check that the correct number of crimps was applied and that the installation matches the chart for the selected wire size and connector series.
