Overview

The NSI Industries ASC1000T is a high-conductivity aluminum splice connector designed for reliable electrical connections. Constructed from premium aluminum tubing, this dual-rated splice ensures excellent conductivity and durability. Its center stop feature is critical for ensuring proper cable installation, preventing over-insertion and guaranteeing a secure connection every time. For enhanced longevity and resistance to environmental factors, the ASC1000T is electro-tin plated, offering superior corrosion resistance. This plating also contributes to low contact resistance, maintaining signal integrity and efficiency. Each ASC1000T splice is meticulously color-coded and marked with precise die index information, simplifying identification and ensuring the correct tooling is used for crimping. This reduces the potential for installation errors and speeds up the termination process. To further protect against oxidation and ensure a stable connection over time, the splice is pre-filled with an oxide inhibitor and capped with a color-coded cap. This proactive measure is essential for aluminum conductors, which are prone to oxidation. The ASC1000T is UL Listed for wire connectors and is rated for 90°C temperature operation. It is also UL Listed to 35kV maximum when properly installed according to cable manufacturer specifications, making it suitable for medium-voltage applications. For standard voltage applications, it is rated 600V maximum, with a 2000V maximum rating per UL486B. Compatible crimp tools include the N1240 and N121D. The ASC1000T is designed for 1000 MCM conductors and features a brown color code. Its dimensions include an outer diameter (O.D.) of 1.844 inches and an inner diameter (I.D.) of 1.153 inches, with a barrel length (L) of 5.250 inches. Each standard carton contains 3 units.

How to Install Aluminum Compression Connectors

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing aluminum compression connectors, ensuring a secure and reliable electrical connection.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Crimping tool, Wire brush

Supplies needed:

Aluminum compression connectors, Cable

  1. Select the appropriate connector

    Choose the correct lug or splice connector based on the size of the cable being installed, ensuring it matches the specifications in the provided chart.

  2. Strip the cable insulation

    Carefully strip the insulation from the conductor without nicking the strands, leaving enough length to fully insert the stripped conductor into the connector barrel.

  3. Clean the conductor

    Use a wire brush to clean the stripped portion of the conductor, removing any oxide films to ensure a good electrical connection.

  4. Insert the conductor into the connector

    Insert the cleaned and stripped conductor completely into the connector barrel, ensuring it fills the barrel completely.

  5. Crimp the connector

    Using the appropriate crimping tool, crimp the connector according to the manufacturer's specifications, ensuring the number of crimps is per side for a splice connector.

  6. Verify the connection

    Inspect the crimped connection to ensure it is secure and that there are no visible gaps or loose strands.
