Blackburn APS06 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire sizes does the Blackburn APS06 split-bolt connector take?
The APS06 is rated for 6 through 10 AWG conductors, so it covers the common range from a #6 feeder tap down to a #10 branch or ground conductor. The images and description call out stranded wire in that range. If your run is larger than #6, this is not the right body size.
2) Can I use an aluminum split-bolt connector like the APS06 on copper wire?
The APS06 body is aluminum with an electro tin-plated finish, which is the construction used for aluminum and for aluminum-to-copper connections. Follow the connector's own listing markings for the conductor combination you are making: the connector is UL E9809 listed, and that listing is what governs whether a given AL, CU, or AL/CU combination is permitted.
3) What does the dual port on the Blackburn APS06 split bolt actually do?
Dual port means the connector has two separate conductor channels rather than one, so you can land more than one conductor in a single split bolt instead of stacking connectors on a tap. It is the configuration people use for a run-through with a tap, or two conductors of different sizes within the 6-10 AWG range.
4) Do I need a crimp tool or a die set for this connector?
No. A split bolt is a mechanical connector, tightened with a wrench, so there is no crimp tool, die set, or hydraulic press involved. That is the main reason crews carry them for field taps and repairs where a compression setup is not practical.
5) Is the Blackburn APS06 suitable for grounding and bonding connections?
Grounding system installations are one of the listed applications for the APS06, along with service entrance work and electrical panel connections. Its 6-10 AWG range lines up with the sizes commonly run for equipment grounding and grounding electrode conductors in commercial work.
6) Does the split bolt need to be taped or insulated after I make the connection?
A split bolt is a bare mechanical connector, not an insulated device, so any splice made with it has to be re-insulated to the level of the conductor insulation, typically with rubber splicing tape and an overwrap or a shrink sleeve. Order that cover material separately; nothing insulating comes with the connector.
7) Is the APS06 UL listed, and what is the listing number?
It carries UL listing E9809. That is the file number shown for the Blackburn split bolt, and it is what an inspector or spec reviewer will want to see for a mechanical connector on a panel or service entrance termination.
8) Are Blackburn APS06 split bolts sold individually or by the box?
The APS06 is sold each, so quantity ordered is the number of connectors you get. Worth counting two per tap if you are landing both a line and load side, and keeping spares on the truck since these are a consumable on repair work.
9) Will a tin-plated connector hold up in a damp or outdoor pull box?
The electro tin plating over the aluminum body is there to resist oxidation on the contact surfaces, which is what degrades an aluminum termination over time. Blackburn lists utility distribution and industrial electrical systems among the applications. The connector itself is not a weatherproof enclosure, so the splice still needs proper insulation and a suitable box for the location.
10) Where is the Blackburn APS06 made?
Country of origin is Mexico. That matters if you are submitting on a job with domestic sourcing or country-of-origin documentation requirements, since it has to be declared on the submittal.
