Blackburn H40HPS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Blackburn H40HPS split-bolt connector used for?
The H40HPS is a mechanical split-bolt connector with a spacer, used to tap or splice copper or aluminum conductors without soldering. The spacer separates the two runs inside the bolt so each conductor seats on its own side, which is what you want on a tap where the run and the tap wire are different sizes. It is a mechanical connector, so it is tightened down rather than crimped or compressed.
2) Is the Blackburn H40HPS rated for aluminum wire, or copper only?
The body is aluminum and tin plated, which is the construction used for dual-rated connectors, so it handles aluminum as well as copper and aluminum-to-copper taps. The tin plating is what keeps the aluminum body from galvanic trouble against a copper conductor.
3) What is the difference between the H40HPS and a plain 40HPS split bolt?
Same connector, different packaging. The H40HPS is the 40HPS packed for sale in Canada; the part number a buyer orders on it is H40HPS. If you are matching what is already installed on a job, the connector itself is the 40HPS.
4) Do I need to tape or insulate the H40HPS after installation?
Yes. A split bolt is a bare mechanical connector, so the completed splice has to be insulated in the field with tape or a split-bolt insulating cover rated for the circuit voltage. Nothing is supplied on the connector for that.
5) Does the H40HPS come in a box or is it sold per piece?
Sold each, so you order the exact count you need rather than a bulk carton. On a multi-tap job, count one connector per splice point.
6) Where is the Blackburn H40HPS made?
Manufactured in Mexico. Country of origin comes up on public and institutional work where a bid package asks for it, so it is worth having on record before submittal.
