Blackburn FBE4H140A1-16 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How long is the Blackburn FBE4H140A1-16 jumper braid?
The braid assembly measures 16 inches (406.4 mm) overall, so it covers a bonding run across an expansion joint, a hinged panel door, or between equipment frames without needing to be stretched taut. Bonding jumpers should have some slack to survive movement, so measure the gap at its widest point and leave the braid with a gentle bow rather than pulling it straight.
2) Is this Blackburn bonding braid insulated?
No. The FBE4H140A1-16 is a non-insulated braid, bare copper strap construction. That is normal for equipment bonding jumpers where the braid is exposed inside an enclosure or across a raceway joint, but it means you need to route it clear of energized parts and sharp edges, and avoid any path where the bare braid could contact an adjacent conductor or terminal.
3) What are the terminal hole size and lug configuration on the FBE4H140A1-16 braid?
The model designation calls out a 9/16 inch hole (the H9/16 in the 4H JMPR BRD ASY4 1400 H9/16 L16 description), which suits a 1/2 inch bolt through a ground pad or busbar with clearance. Check the bolt pattern on your pad before ordering, since the braid bolts flat to both ends and a smaller pad drilling will not line up.
4) Is a flexible braid jumper the right choice, or should I use a solid bonding conductor?
Use the extra-flexible braid where the two bonded points move relative to each other: expansion fittings in conduit, vibration-isolated equipment bases, hinged enclosure doors, or seismic joints. A solid or stranded bonding conductor is fine for a fixed connection that never flexes, but it work-hardens and cracks under repeated movement. The FBE4H140A1-16 is an extra-flexible braid assembly built for the moving case.
5) Does this Blackburn jumper braid meet a recognized standard for grounding assemblies?
It is built to NEMA standards as a grounding device assembly. For a specifier writing a bonding detail on a switchgear lineup, transformer pad, or generator frame, that is the reference you can cite on the submittal for this braid.
6) Is the Blackburn FBE4H140A1-16 sold individually or in a pack?
Sold each, one braid assembly per unit. For a multi-section switchgear lineup or a run of expansion couplings, count one per joint and order that quantity.
7) Where is the Blackburn FBE4H140A1-16 braid made?
Manufactured in the United States, which matters if you are procuring for a federal, military, or transit project with domestic-content requirements on electrical materials.
