Overview

NSI Industries SC-1 Standard Barrel Tinned Copper Splice is a UL486A-listed, cULus-approved compression connector engineered for high-performance copper cable splicing in industrial and utility applications. Manufactured from high-conductivity copper tubing with a tin-plated finish, this splice delivers superior corrosion resistance and reliable electrical continuity for systems operating up to 35kV when installed per cable manufacturer specifications. Key specifications include a 1 AWG wire range, 600V maximum voltage rating, and 90°C temperature rating. The SC-1 features flared openings at both ends for effortless insertion of flexible and extra-flexible cables, including locomotive, welding, and mining cables. A positive center stop ensures proper conductor alignment, while serrations indicate optimal crimp locations for consistent, code-compliant installations. The splice is color-coded (green) and die-index marked for quick identification and tool compatibility. Ideal for splicing Class B or C building wire copper cables, the SC-1 is distributed by Gross Automation and supports expanded wire ranges when used with the NSI N12ID dieless compression tool. Each splice meets UL486A and UL467 grounding & bonding standards (for sizes 8 AWG–3/0 AWG), ensuring compliance with NEC 310.15 ampacity requirements. With a standard carton quantity of 50, this splice is a cost-effective solution for OEMs, utilities, and industrial maintenance teams requiring durable, high-voltage copper cable connections.

How to Install Copper Compression Connectors

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing copper compression connectors, ensuring secure and reliable electrical connections.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Crimping tool, Wire brush

Supplies needed:

Copper compression connectors, Cable

  1. Strip the conductor

    Carefully strip the insulation from the conductor without nicking the strands, ensuring the stripped length allows for complete insertion into the connector barrel.

  2. 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.

  3. Insert the conductor

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

  4. Crimp the connector

    Using the appropriate crimping tool, apply pressure to crimp the connector securely onto the conductor, following the manufacturer's suggested crimp locations.

  5. Verify the connection

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