Blackburn PC 250-6533 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes does the Blackburn PC 250-6533 compression splice take?
The PC 250-6533 is a copper compression splice sized for 1/0 AWG through 250 kcmil conductors. It joins two conductors end to end, so both ends need to fall in that range. If your run is smaller than 1/0 or larger than 250 kcmil, this is the wrong barrel.
2) Is the Blackburn PC 250-6533 splice insulated, or do I have to tape or heat shrink it?
It ships bare. The splice carries no insulation, so the installer has to insulate the finished joint with tape, heat shrink or a cold shrink sleeve rated for the circuit voltage. Budget that material into the job.
3) Can I use the PC 250-6533 on aluminum conductors?
No. This is a copper-bodied compression splice intended for copper conductors. For aluminum or an aluminum-to-copper transition you need a barrel rated AL/CU, not this one.
4) Does the Blackburn PC 250-6533 need a crimp tool, or can it be tightened with a wrench?
It is a compression connector, not a mechanical set-screw lug, so it has to be crimped with a hydraulic or battery compression tool and the correct die. There are no bolts or screws on it. If you want a joint you can make with a hex key, you want a mechanical splice instead.
5) How long is the PC 250-6533 splice barrel? I need to know if it fits in my pull box.
The body measures 2.625 inches long. Add your insulation method on top of that when you check clearance in a box, gutter or handhole, and remember the finished joint sits in line with the cable.
6) Why is this copper splice tin-plated?
The tin plating on the PC 250-6533 protects the copper barrel from oxidation and corrosion, which matters in damp vaults, underground boxes and outdoor enclosures. It also makes the barrel compatible with plated conductor strands without a dissimilar metal issue at the contact surface.
7) Does the Blackburn PC 250-6533 come in a bag or is it sold one at a time?
It is sold individually, one splice per unit, under part number PC 250-6533. Count one per conductor being joined, so a three-phase splice with a neutral takes four.
8) Is the Blackburn PC 250-6533 made in the USA? We have a domestic content requirement.
Country of origin on the PC 250-6533 copper compression splice is the United States. That is the value our record carries for this part if your project has a domestic sourcing clause to satisfy.
