Blackburn Q 1 U 70 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Blackburn Q 1 U 70 splice come insulated, or do I have to tape or shrink it after crimping?
The Q 1 U 70 is an uninsulated compression splice, with no insulation material on the barrel. You have to insulate it yourself after crimping, using tape, a shrink sleeve, or a cover suited to the service entrance application.
2) Is the Blackburn Q 1 U 70 a crimp splice or a set-screw connector?
It is a compression (crimp) splice, so it needs a proper crimping tool and die for the conductor size, not a hex key. There are no set screws to torque and nothing to re-tighten later.
3) How many conductors does the Q 1 U 70 service entrance splice join?
Two. It is a two-conductor splice, meaning one run-to-run joint per connector, so on a three-conductor service entrance run you need one splice per conductor being joined.
4) What does the red/brown color on the Blackburn Q 1 U 70 mean?
Red/Brown is the color coding on this Blackburn splice, which identifies the conductor range and the matching crimp die. Match the die color called out by your crimp tool chart to the connector color so the compression is made with the correct die.
5) What is the exact manufacturer part number for this Blackburn service entrance splice?
Blackburn catalog number Q 1 U 70. That is the number to quote for a wire or cable compression splice, uninsulated, in the service entrance line.
6) Is the Q 1 U 70 sold individually or in a bag of connectors?
Each. The selling unit on the Q 1 U 70 is a single connector, so order one per splice you intend to make plus spares for mis-crimps.
7) Is the Blackburn Q 1 U 70 made in the USA for jobs with domestic sourcing requirements?
Country of origin on the Q 1 U 70 is the United States, which is what a government, institutional, or utility buyer working under domestic-content purchasing rules needs on the submittal.
