Blackburn W62-1-T – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What conductor sizes does the Blackburn W62-1-T wedge clamp take?
The W62-1-T is the 2-6 range tap, sized for a service entrance conductor run against a tap conductor in that same 2 through 6 range. It handles a single conductor per clamp, so a three wire service needs one clamp per phase or leg.
2) Is the W62-1-T rated for medium voltage service work or only 600V?
It carries a 35 kV rating, so it is usable on medium voltage service entrance work, not just 600V secondary. Note there is no insulation on the clamp itself, so any covering or taping at the connection is on you.
3) Can I use an aluminum wedge clamp like this on copper conductors?
The W62-1-T body is aluminum with a bare finish. Aluminum service wedge clamps of this style are intended for aluminum to aluminum service connections; mixing dissimilar metals in an unplated aluminum connector invites galvanic corrosion, so for copper to aluminum taps use a connector specifically dual rated AL9CU.
4) How much room do I need in the pedestal or handhole for this wedge clamp?
Plan for 12-1/2 inches of length and 2-3/8 inches of depth per clamp, plus swing room for the driving tool. In a crowded pull box or meter socket that length is usually the deciding factor, since the clamp sits inline along the conductor rather than perpendicular to it.
5) Do I need a crimper or a torque wrench to install a Blackburn wedge clamp?
No crimp die and no torque spec to hit. This is a tension type connection: the wedge is driven into the C shaped body, and the spring tension of the body holds the conductors under continuous pressure. That makes it a tool driven, no bolt install, which is why utilities and service contractors like it for overhead and service entrance taps.
6) Is this the same part as a cable gland or a strain relief connector?
No. Despite being grouped with cable connectors, the W62-1-T is a service entrance wedge clamp that makes an electrical tap between two conductors. It does not seal or anchor a cable into an enclosure the way a gland fitting does, and it provides no insulation.
7) Is the W62-1-T sold individually or in a box quantity?
Sold each, so the count you order is the count of clamps you get. Size the order per connection point, not per service, since each clamp handles one conductor.
8) Where is the Blackburn W62-1-T manufactured, and what is the exact part number to spec?
Order it as Blackburn W62-1-T. It is manufactured in Mexico. That MPN identifies the 2-6 conductor range in the W62 tension wedge series.
