Blackburn PRS25N – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Blackburn PRS25N pigtail sleeve actually do?
The PRS25N is a compression pin terminal that acts as a wire or cable reducer: an aluminum sleeve is compressed onto the cable conductor, and a pre-attached copper pigtail comes out the other end so you can land the cable on a smaller termination point or lug. The pigtail is tinplated, which is what lets it meet a copper or tin-plated pad without a dissimilar-metal problem.
2) What voltage class is the Blackburn PRS25N rated for?
35 kV. That puts it in medium-voltage work, so it suits utility and industrial cable terminations rather than 600 V building wiring.
3) How long is the pigtail on the PRS25N, and how much sleeve length do I have to work with?
The pigtail measures 1/2 x 8 inches and the aluminum sleeve is 5 inches long. Plan your window or termination pocket around those two figures: 5 inches of barrel needs room for the crimp die passes, and 8 inches of pigtail is what you have to reach the pad or lug.
4) Is the Blackburn PRS25N insulated, or do I have to insulate it myself?
No insulation is supplied. The PRS25N is a bare compression sleeve and pigtail, so any covering, tape, tubing or termination kit insulation is on you and is not included in the part.
5) Can I use the PRS25N on aluminum cable as well as copper?
The compressed end is an aluminum sleeve, which is the barrel that goes onto the cable conductor. The copper pigtail is tinplated on the output side. Match the sleeve to your cable conductor size before ordering, since compression sleeves are sized to a specific conductor and are not adjustable once crimped.
6) How is the Blackburn PRS25N sold, one piece or a box?
Sold each, so the count you order is the count of sleeves you get. On a three-phase cable set that means three pieces per termination, plus spares if you expect a bad crimp.
7) What is the exact part number and origin for the Blackburn pigtail compression sleeve?
Order it as Blackburn PRS25N. It is manufactured in Mexico. That MPN is the single ordering designation for this pigtail compression sleeve, so quoting it avoids confusion with other sleeve lengths in the line.
