Blackburn FBXD36-1 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size conductor is the Blackburn FBXD36-1 flexible braid, and how long is it?
The FBXD36-1 is a 105.6 kcmil flexible tin-plated copper braid, 36 inches long. The braid is flat rather than round, so it lays against a flat bonding surface instead of needing a cable bend radius.
2) Is the Blackburn FBXD36-1 braid a 1-hole or 2-hole termination?
One hole per end. The FBXD36-1 is a 1-hole flexible braid connector, so each end lands on a single bolt. If your bonding detail calls for a two-hole pattern to resist rotation, this is not the part for that connection.
3) Does the Blackburn FBXD36-1 flexible braid carry UL and CSA listings for a grounding inspection?
Yes. The braid is covered under UL E3060 and CSA LR29625, which is what an inspector or a spec reviewer on an institutional job will want cited for a bonding jumper.
4) Why use a flexible braid jumper instead of solid bare copper for a bonding connection?
Movement. A flat flexible braid like the FBXD36-1 absorbs vibration, thermal expansion, and equipment motion across a joint without stressing the lugs, which is why braid is used on switchgear doors, transformer cases, expansion joints, and rail or bus bonding. Solid or stranded bare copper is fine where the two points never move relative to each other; where they do, the braid is the right conductor category.
5) Do I need one Blackburn FBXD36-1 per connection, or does it come as a pair?
It is sold each, one braid per order, and one braid makes one jumper between two points. Order the count of connections you are bonding.
6) Is the Blackburn FBXD36-1 tin-plated, and does that matter outdoors or in a damp vault?
The conductor is tin-plated copper. The plating slows oxidation at the braid surface and at the bolted interface, which matters in wet vaults, outdoor pad-mount gear, and coastal or industrial air where bare copper dulls and contact resistance creeps up.
7) Is the Blackburn FBXD36-1 braid made in the USA for a Buy American submittal?
Country of origin on the FBXD36-1 is the United States, which is the line a government, transit, or federally funded project will ask you to document.
8) What is the exact part number to order for a 36 inch Blackburn flexible braid?
Blackburn FBXD36-1. That single model covers the 105.6 kcmil, 36 inch, 1-hole flat braid; there are no finish or size options to specify on it.
