Blackburn ICS65-1 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes does the Blackburn ICS65-1 service entrance splice take?
The ICS65-1 is a two-conductor insulated service entrance splice with two different barrel sizes: the A side takes 2 solid and the B side takes 8 solid. It is a reducing splice, so the run and tap conductors are not the same size. If both of your conductors are the same gauge, this is the wrong part.
2) Can I use this Blackburn aluminum splice on copper wire?
Yes, for aluminum-to-copper as well as aluminum-to-aluminum. The ICS65-1 complies with ANSI C119.4 when properly installed on aluminum-to-aluminum or aluminum-to-copper conductors, which is the standard covering connectors for that dual-rated service.
3) Is the ICS65-1 a crimp splice or a set screw connector?
Crimp. It is a compression splice, so you need a hydraulic or battery crimp tool with the matching die to make it up. There are no screws or bolts to torque.
4) Does the Blackburn ICS65-1 need separate tape or a cover after crimping?
No. The ICS65-1 is an insulated splice, so the insulation is part of the body and the connection is covered once it is crimped. You do not have to build up tape or add a separate boot.
5) How long is the ICS65-1 splice body? I have limited room in the meter can.
Overall size is 2-25/32 inches, so allow roughly that much straight length plus crimp tool clearance inside the enclosure or weatherhead gutter.
6) Is the Blackburn ICS65-1 sold individually or in a bag of ten?
Sold each. One ICS65-1 splice per unit, so order one per connection you are making.
7) What part number do I give my supplier for this Blackburn service entrance splice, and where is it made?
Order it as Blackburn ICS65-1. It is manufactured in Mexico.
