Blackburn ATC 1000 CPT – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Blackburn ATC 1000 CPT splice be used on both aluminum and copper conductors?
Yes. The ATC 1000 CPT is a dual-rated AL/CU compression splice sized for 1000 kcmil conductor, so it will take aluminum or copper, including an aluminum-to-copper transition. The barrel is bare aluminum with no factory insulation, so if the joint needs to be insulated you cover it yourself with tape or heat shrink after crimping.
2) How long is the Blackburn ATC 1000 CPT splice barrel?
8-27/32 inches overall. That length matters when you are working inside a pull box, meter socket or gutter, since the finished splice plus the bending radius on 1000 kcmil cable has to clear the enclosure walls. Measure your box before you commit to an inline splice at this size.
3) Does this 1000 kcmil compression splice meet ANSI C119.4?
The ATC 1000 CPT is listed to ANSI C119.4, the standard covering electric connectors for use between aluminum and aluminum or aluminum and copper conductors. That is the reference most utility and service entrance specs call out for AL/CU compression connectors.
4) How many conductors does the ATC 1000 CPT compression splice join?
Two. It is a straight inline splice with one conductor entry at each end, for joining a single run of 1000 kcmil cable, not a tap or a multi-port connector.
5) Do I need a crimp tool for the ATC 1000 CPT, or can it be bolted?
It is a compression connector only, so it has to be crimped with a hydraulic tool and the correct die for the barrel. There are no set screws and no bolted pads. If you need a mechanical connection you can make up with a wrench, a set screw or split bolt style splice is the right product instead.
6) Is the ATC 1000 CPT pre-insulated for direct burial or wet locations?
No. The splice ships bare with no insulation on it, so any insulating or moisture sealing is field applied. For a buried or wet location joint you will need the appropriate tape build up or a shrink sleeve over the finished crimp, per the job spec.
7) Is the Blackburn ATC 1000 CPT sold individually or in a package?
Sold each, one splice per unit. On a three phase plus neutral service entrance splice you would order four, and utility crews usually pick up a spare since a mis-crimped barrel cannot be reused.
8) Where is the Blackburn ATC 1000 CPT made?
Made in the United States. That matters on government, federal and utility work where domestic sourcing is a condition of the contract.
