Blackburn EXH150A1295 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Blackburn EXH150A1295 flexible braid connector used for?
It is an extra flexible braid connector rated 1500 amps, used to make a flexible current-carrying link between rigid bus bars, disconnect switch blades, or equipment terminals where movement, vibration, or thermal expansion has to be absorbed. The braid is tin-plated copper in a flat shape, and it is built to IEEE/ANSI C37.34, the standard covering flexible connectors for switchgear bus. It is sold each.
2) How long is the EXH150A1295 braid connector?
295 mm, which is 11.61 inches. That is the overall length of the braid, so lay out your bus gap with enough slack for the flex to do its job rather than pulling tight between terminals.
3) Will a 1500A flexible braid connector handle the movement on a disconnect switch or expanding bus run?
That is exactly what it is for. The conductor is classified very flexible and made in a flat braid, so it absorbs bus expansion, switch blade travel, and equipment vibration without loading the terminals. It is made to IEEE/ANSI C37.34, the standard for flexible connectors used with switchgear.
4) How many bolt holes does the Blackburn EXH150A1295 have on each pad?
It is a 4-hole braid connector, so each terminal pad takes a four-bolt pattern. Match the hole pattern and spacing on your existing bus pads before ordering, since a four-hole pad will not land on a two-hole drilled bus.
5) What part number should I specify for the 1500 amp, 295 mm four-hole Blackburn braid?
Specify Blackburn EXH150A1295. That single catalog number covers the 1500 amp rating, the 295 mm (11.61 inch) length, and the 4-hole flat tin-plated copper braid, and it is ordered each.
6) Does the EXH150A1295 braid connector come with mounting bolts?
The braid is supplied as the connector alone, one per order. Hardware for the bolted joints (bolts, Belleville washers, nuts sized to your bus drilling) is specified separately to suit the pads you are landing on.
7) Why is the braid tin-plated instead of bare copper?
The conductor is tin-plated copper. The tin plating slows oxidation at the bolted contact surfaces, which keeps contact resistance and heat rise down on a high-current joint, and it is the usual finish where the connector may see humid or outdoor switchgear conditions.
8) Is the Blackburn EXH150A1295 made in the USA?
Country of origin is the United States, which matters if your project carries a domestic-content or Buy American requirement on electrical materials.
