Blackburn ICS74-1 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes does the Blackburn ICS74-1 service entrance splice take?
The ICS74-1 is a two-conductor splice sized A: 1/0 on the large side and B: 6 solid on the small side. It is a fixed-range connector, so both conductors have to match those sizes, 1/0 into the A barrel and #6 solid into the B barrel. Anything outside that pairing needs a different ICS number.
2) Can I use this splice on aluminum to copper, or is it aluminum only?
Both. The ICS74-1 is accepted for aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-copper conductors, and it meets ANSI C119.4 when properly installed on either combination. It is also RUS accepted, which matters on utility and rural electrification work.
3) Is this a compression splice or a set screw connector?
Compression. The ICS74-1 is crimped with a compression tool and die, not tightened with a set screw, so there is no torque spec to hit and nothing to re-torque later. Plan on having the correct die for the barrel before you get on the ladder.
4) Does the ICS74-1 come insulated, or do I have to tape and seal it myself?
It is an insulated splice, so the body covers the connection once crimped. That is what makes it usable for a service entrance tap where you are reducing from a 1/0 aluminum run to a #6 solid conductor.
5) How long is the ICS74-1 splice body? I need to know if it fits in the meter socket.
The splice measures 2-25/32 inches, which is the figure to check against the space you have in a meter can, pedestal, or weatherhead before you commit to an insulated compression connector.
6) What is the exact part number and manufacturer for this service entrance splice?
Blackburn ICS74-1, manufactured in Mexico. That MPN is what you quote to get the 1/0 by #6 solid combination, since the ICS family covers many other size pairings under adjacent numbers.
7) Is the ICS74-1 sold individually or in a bag of multiples?
Sold each, so you order the exact count you need for the job rather than a fixed carton.
