Blackburn SAC 1000 R 750 TN – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Blackburn SAC 1000 R 750 TN an insulated splice or does it need to be covered after crimping?
It ships bare. Insulation material is listed as None, so the aluminum compression reducer has no factory insulation or cover. If the splice needs to be insulated for the application, you install tape, heat shrink, or a cold shrink sleeve over the finished crimp separately. At 7 inches long, size your sleeve to cover the full barrel plus overlap onto both conductors.
2) Does this Blackburn aluminum reducer meet ANSI C119.4 for underground and secondary connectors?
Yes. The SAC 1000 R 750 TN is built to ANSI C119.4, the standard covering electric connectors for use between aluminum and copper bare overhead conductors. That is the spec line most utility and commercial electrical submittals ask for on a compression splice.
3) Can I use the SAC 1000 R 750 TN on copper conductors, or is it aluminum only?
The body is aluminum and it is tin plated, which is the finish aluminum connectors get so they can be used on copper as well as aluminum without a dissimilar-metal problem at the contact surface. Tin plated aluminum compression connectors built to ANSI C119.4 are the standard choice for AL-to-CU transitions. Confirm the conductor sizes match the 750 barrel ends before crimping.
4) What tooling do I need to install this Blackburn splice reducer?
This is a compression connection, not mechanical set screw, so it needs a hydraulic or battery crimper with the die matching the connector and a die index stamped on the barrel. There are no bolts or lugs to torque. Plan the die and the number of crimps along the 7 inch barrel before you pull the cable in, since a compression splice cannot be redone once it is deformed.
5) Is this splice made in the USA for a government or Buy American job?
Country of origin on the Blackburn SAC 1000 R 750 TN is the United States. That is the line to reference on federal, municipal, and transit submittals with domestic-content requirements.
6) What is the difference between a compression splice reducer and a straight compression splice?
A straight splice joins two conductors of the same size. A reducer, like the SAC 1000 R 750 TN, is a splice whose two barrel ends are sized for different conductors so you can transition from one cable size to the next in a single crimped body. Use it where a feeder steps down mid-run or where you are tying a new cable into an existing run of a different size. If both of your conductors are the same size, order a straight splice instead.
7) Is the Blackburn SAC 1000 R 750 TN sold individually or in a bag?
Each. The selling unit of measure is one connector, model SAC 1000 R 750 TN, so a quantity of 10 is 10 splices, not 10 packs. Useful when you are ordering exact counts for a pull rather than stocking a truck.
