Blackburn CS62 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Blackburn CS62 aluminum compression sleeve be used to splice aluminum to copper?
Yes. The CS62 is rated for both aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-copper conductor combinations, and it complies with ANSI C119.4 when installed properly on either. It is also RUS accepted, which matters on utility and rural electrification work.
2) Is the Blackburn CS62 sleeve insulated, or do I have to tape or cover the splice myself?
It is a bare sleeve with no insulation. The CS62 carries no insulating material, so the finished splice has to be insulated in the field with tape, heat shrink, or a cover, or landed inside an enclosure where insulation is not required.
3) Do I need a crimp tool for the Blackburn CS62, or can it be installed with set screws?
Compression only. The CS62 is a compression-type connector, so it has to be installed with the correct hydraulic or battery crimp tool and die set. There are no set screws, and the ANSI C119.4 compliance only holds when the sleeve is properly compressed.
4) How many conductors does the Blackburn CS62 splice accept?
Two. The CS62 is a straight two-conductor splice, one cable entering each end, so it is for extending or repairing a single run rather than tapping a branch off it. If you need a tap or a multi-port connection, a compression sleeve like this is the wrong body style.
5) Is the Blackburn CS62 suitable for service entrance conductors?
Yes, it is a service entrance compression splice, which is where these aluminum sleeves are most often used, including aluminum service laterals and feeders. Because it is bare, plan on insulating or enclosing the completed splice.
6) Is the Blackburn CS62 sold individually or in a bag of multiples?
Sold each. The CS62 aluminum compression sleeve is priced and shipped as a single piece, so order one per splice you plan to make plus spares for miscrimps.
7) What is the part number and country of origin on the Blackburn CS62 sleeve?
The manufacturer part number is CS62 from Blackburn, and it is made in Mexico. That MPN is what to reference on a submittal or when matching sleeves already installed on a job.
