Blackburn EXH140A11100 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the current rating and length of the Blackburn EXH140A11100 flexible braid connector?
It is a 1400 amp extra-flexible braid connector with a 1100 mm overall length. The pad at each end carries a 4-hole bolt pattern, so it lands on standard 4-hole NEMA-style substation pads rather than a single-bolt terminal.
2) Is the braid on this 1400A connector copper, and is it plated?
The conductor is tin-plated copper braid. The tin plating is what lets it bolt directly to aluminum or copper bus without the galvanic problem you get from bare copper on aluminum, which is why utilities spec plated braid for outdoor switchgear connections.
3) Will a 4-hole braid connector work on a 2-hole terminal pad?
No. The EXH140A11100 has a 4-hole pad pattern, and it needs a mating pad drilled for four bolts. If the equipment terminal is a 2-hole pad, order the 2-hole version of the braid instead of trying to bolt two of the four holes, which leaves the joint under-clamped and raises contact resistance.
4) Why use a flexible braid connector instead of rigid bus or a cable jumper between bus sections?
A flat flexible braid absorbs thermal expansion, vibration, and the movement of a switch blade or breaker terminal without loading the bus pads. Rigid bus transmits that stress into the insulators; a round cable jumper is stiffer in bending and does not sit flat against a bolted pad the way a flat braid does. The EXH140A11100 is a flat, flexible braid intended for exactly that expansion/movement duty at 1400 amps.
5) How do I order the right part number for a 1400A 4-hole Blackburn braid in a 1100 mm length?
The part number is EXH140A11100. Reading it back: EXH extra-flexible braid, 140A for the 1400 amp rating, and 1100 for the 1100 mm length. Other lengths and ampacities in the family change those digits, so match the length you measured between pad centers before you commit.
6) Is the Blackburn EXH140A11100 sold individually or in pairs?
It is sold each, so a jumper between two bus sections is one unit. If you are connecting all three phases, order three.
7) Where is the Blackburn EXH140A11100 braid connector made?
Country of origin is the United States, which matters if the job carries a domestic-content or Buy American requirement on utility and government substation work.
