Blackburn ABP 5350 C – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes will the Blackburn ABP 5350 C eyebolt set-screw connector accept?
The ABP 5350 C takes conductors from #12 all the way up to 350 kcmil, so one connector body covers small taps and heavy feeders on the same job. It has five ports, meaning you can land up to five conductors in a single connector.
2) Can I use the Blackburn ABP 5350 C on aluminum conductors as well as copper?
It's an aluminum-body mechanical set-screw connector rated for overhead transformer tap work, and it meets or exceeds ANSI C119.4 for connectors used on both aluminum and copper conductors. The body ships bare, with no insulation, so it needs to be covered or taped in any application where an insulated connection is required.
3) What temperature is this multi-tap connector rated for?
Up to 90 degrees C, which lines up with 90 C rated conductor insulation such as THHN/THWN-2 or XHHW-2. Ampacity on the circuit is still governed by the conductor and the terminations at each end, not by the connector.
4) How much room do I need in the enclosure or on the pole for this connector?
The ABP 5350 C body measures 5-5/16 inches, so allow for that plus bending room for five conductors and driver clearance to reach each set screw. It's a fairly long block for a five-port tap, which matters in a crowded gutter or pull box.
5) What is the eyebolt on this Blackburn connector actually for?
It's an overhead transformer style connector: the eyebolt end gives you a mounting or attachment point at the transformer or support, while the five set-screw ports land the tap conductors. That's the difference between this and a plain inline multi-tap block, which has ports only and no attachment eye.
6) Do I need a compression tool or crimper to install this connector?
No. It's a mechanical set-screw connector, so it lands with a hex driver or torque wrench, no hydraulic crimper and no dies. That's why it gets used for field taps and maintenance work where pulling a compression tool up a pole isn't practical.
7) Is the Blackburn ABP 5350 C sold individually or in a pack?
Sold each, one connector per unit, under manufacturer part number ABP 5350 C. Order one per tap point rather than expecting a multi-pack.
8) Is this connector made in the USA for spec or procurement requirements?
Country of origin on the ABP 5350 C is the United States, which matters on public and institutional jobs carrying domestic sourcing language. It also carries ANSI C119.4 compliance for the connector itself.
