Blackburn ANB 250-3 V10 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size range does the Blackburn ANB 250-3 V10 mechanical connector accept?
The ANB 250-3 V10 is rated for conductors from #12 through 250 kcmil, which is what the "No12-250" in the part designation refers to. That range covers everything from small branch-circuit neutrals up to a 250 kcmil feeder landing in the same bar.
2) Can I land copper conductors in this Blackburn aluminum neutral bar, or is it aluminum only?
It is a dual rated connector, so both aluminum and copper conductors can be terminated in it. The body itself is aluminum, which is standard for dual rated mechanical lugs and neutral bars. Use an appropriate joint compound on aluminum conductors per your installation practice.
3) Is the Blackburn ANB 250-3 V10 a neutral bar or a single mechanical lug?
It is catalogued by Blackburn as an aluminum neutral bar with mechanical lug terminations, so it is a bar-style connector body rather than a single one-hole compression lug. Conductors are secured with set screws, no crimp tool or die set required, which is why electricians reach for it for panel neutral and ground consolidation.
4) Do I need a crimp tool to terminate conductors in the Blackburn ANB 250-3 V10?
No. This is a mechanical connector, terminated with set screws using a hex key or driver, so no hydraulic crimper, dies, or compression tool is needed. That makes it the practical choice for field terminations and retrofit work where bringing a crimp tool to the panel is not worth it. Compression lugs are the alternative when a permanent, tool-verified crimp is specified.
5) What part number should I order to match an existing Blackburn ANB 250 neutral bar in a panel?
Specify Blackburn ANB 250-3 V10 exactly. Blackburn uses suffixes in this family to distinguish port count and configuration, so a bar ordered as ANB 250 without the -3 V10 may not match what is already mounted. Quote the full designation on the order to keep the fleet standardized.
6) Is the Blackburn ANB 250-3 V10 sold individually or in a multi-pack?
It is sold each, one connector per unit, so order the quantity you need for the job rather than a bagged multiple. The part is manufactured in the United States.
