How to Install Aluminum Compression Connectors

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing aluminum compression connectors safely and effectively.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Crimping tool, Heat gun or propane torch, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Aluminum compression connectors, Heat shrink tubing, Belleville spring washers, Anti-oxidation compound

  1. Prepare the wire

    Strip the wire insulation to the appropriate length as per the tool chart. Ensure not to nick or ring the conductor strands.

  2. Clean the wire

    Wire brush the stripped wire to remove any oxide film before inserting it into the connector.

  3. Insert and crimp the connector

    Insert the stripped wire into the connector until it stops. Use the specified crimping tool to crimp the connector evenly in the designated crimp zone.

  4. Inspect the crimp

    After crimping, inspect the connection for sharp edges, flash, or burrs and remove any that are present.

  5. Apply heat shrink insulation

    Cut the heat shrink tubing to the desired length, allowing for a minimum of 1-1/2 inch overlap on the wire insulation. Shrink the tubing using a heat gun or propane torch, moving from the crimped portion toward the insulated wire.

  6. Secure the connection

    For a secure bolt connection, use Belleville spring washers. Wire brush unplated mounting surfaces and apply anti-oxidation compound before tightening the bolt to the recommended torque.
