Blackburn 32513 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What conductor sizes does the Blackburn 32513 Locktite connector take?
The Blackburn 32513 is a two-way Locktite mechanical connector rated for conductors from 4/0 AWG through 300 kcmil. Both ports take the same range, so it splices or taps two conductors anywhere inside that window. If your run is smaller than 4/0 or larger than 300 kcmil, this is the wrong body and you need a different size in the Locktite line.
2) Is the Blackburn 32513 copper only, or can I use it on aluminum conductors?
Copper. The 32513 body is copper and it is catalogued as a CU connector, so it is intended for copper conductors. For aluminum or dual-rated AL9CU work, use a connector specifically marked for aluminum rather than this one.
3) What is the difference between a Locktite mechanical connector like the 32513 and a compression lug?
The 32513 is a mechanical set screw type connector, so it tightens onto the conductor with a torqued screw and needs only a wrench or driver. A compression connector needs a matched die and a hydraulic or battery crimper, and it is not reusable. On a 4/0 to 300 kcmil splice where you have no crimper on the truck, or where the connection may need to be opened later, the mechanical connector is the practical choice.
4) What part number do I give my distributor for the Blackburn 4/0-300 two way copper connector?
Manufacturer part number 32513, Blackburn. Described as Locktite CU 2-way conductor connector, 4/0 to 300 kcmil, made in Mexico.
5) Can I use the 32513 to join two different size conductors, say 4/0 to 250 kcmil?
Yes, as long as both conductors fall in the 4/0 AWG to 300 kcmil range, which 4/0 and 250 kcmil both do. The two ports are independently screwed down, so mixed sizes within the range are fine. Both conductors must be copper.
6) Does the Blackburn 32513 come as a single connector or in a box quantity?
It sells each, one connector per unit. For a three phase splice you are ordering three, plus whatever you need for the neutral and ground.
