Blackburn 6H3 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes does the Blackburn 6H3 split bolt connector take?
The 6H3 is sized for 6 AWG down to 10 AWG solid conductors, which is where the "6-10SLD" in the part name comes from. Run conductors outside that range and you want a different size in the H series, not this one. Sold each.
2) Can I use the 6H3 split bolt on a copper ground conductor tap?
It is a bronze alloy mechanical connector, which is the standard body material for copper-to-copper taps and splices on grounding electrode and bonding conductors. Keep it within 6 to 10 AWG solid copper. For aluminum or copper-to-aluminum you need a connector specifically rated for that combination, not a bronze split bolt.
3) Split bolt or a compression connector for a 6 AWG ground splice?
A split bolt like the Blackburn 6H3 is the mechanical option: you tighten it with a wrench, no dies or crimp tool, and it can be taken apart later for inspection or re-tapping. A compression (crimp) connector needs the matching tool and die and is permanent. For a one-off 6 to 10 AWG solid tap in a panel, handhole, or on a water pipe bond, the split bolt is the faster call. On high-volume production work the crimp connector wins on labor.
4) Does the 6H3 come with insulation or a cover?
It is a bare metallic bronze split bolt, no insulating cover included. If the splice needs to be insulated, tape it or add a separately ordered split-bolt insulator sized to the connector.
5) Is the Blackburn 6H3 sold individually or in a bag of ten?
Individually. The selling unit is each, so one 6H3 connector per unit ordered. Order the count you need for the job rather than assuming a carton quantity.
6) What is the exact manufacturer part number and country of origin for the 6H3?
Blackburn part number 6H3, a high-strength split bolt connector, manufactured in Mexico. That MPN is what to put on a submittal or reorder.
