Blackburn APS21 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire sizes does the Blackburn APS21 split-bolt connector take?
The Blackburn APS21 is rated for 2/0 through 4 AWG stranded conductors. It's a dual split-bolt, so it makes a run-to-tap or wire-to-wire mechanical connection anywhere in that range without crimping or heat.
2) Is the Blackburn APS21 UL listed for a service entrance splice?
It carries UL file E9809, and service entrance connections are among the applications called out for it, along with electrical panels, industrial and commercial wiring, utility distribution, and grounding splices. For an inspector, the E9809 listing is the reference to cite.
3) Do I need a crimper or torch to install the APS21?
No. It's a mechanical connector, tightened with a wrench on the split bolt, so there is no crimp die or heat involved. That makes it the practical choice for field splices and repairs where you don't want to haul a hydraulic crimper or run a torch inside an occupied building.
4) Does the tin plating on this connector matter outdoors or in a wet vault?
Yes. The electro tin-plated surface is there for corrosion protection and conductivity on the aluminum body, which is what you want in damp pull boxes, utility vaults, and service entrance gear. Bare aluminum in those spots oxidizes at the contact face; tin plating slows that down. Tape or insulate the finished splice per your local requirements.
5) Will the APS21 work for a grounding electrode conductor splice?
Grounding system connections are listed among its applications, and it's UL listed under file E9809 for 2/0-4 STR conductors. Confirm your grounding conductor falls inside 2/0 to 4 AWG stranded and that your jurisdiction accepts a split-bolt for the specific grounding connection you're making, since some grounding electrode terminations require an irreversible compression connection instead.
6) What is the Blackburn part number and how is it sold?
Model APS21 is the manufacturer part number, and it's sold each, not by the box or the card. If you're standardizing a truck stock or a bid sheet on 2/0-4 STR splices, order the quantity you need by the piece.
7) Where is the Blackburn APS21 made?
Mexico. That's the stated country of origin, which matters if you're filling a government or institutional order with domestic-content or trade-documentation requirements on electrical materials.
