Panduit SBC500-1 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What conductor size does the Panduit SBC500-1 split bolt connector take?
The Pan-Lug SBC500-1 is sized for 500 kcmil copper conductors, and the SBC series splice range runs 300 to 500 kcmil. That is heavy feeder territory, so if you are splicing anything smaller than 300 kcmil you want a smaller split bolt in the series rather than this one, a loose fit on a split bolt is a hot joint.
2) Can I use the Panduit SBC500-1 to splice aluminum to copper?
No. The SBC500-1 is a copper-bodied connector rated copper-to-copper only. Putting aluminum in it risks a galvanic/dissimilar-metal joint. For an aluminum or AL-CU splice you need a connector marked AL9CU and the appropriate oxide-inhibiting compound.
3) Is the Panduit SBC500-1 rated for 600V feeder and panelboard work?
Yes, 600V maximum. That covers standard commercial and industrial power distribution, panelboard feeders, and service conductor splices. Above 600V you need a medium-voltage connector system instead.
4) Will this split bolt work with 90 degree C rated THHN?
The SBC500-1 carries a UL temperature rating of 90 degrees C, so it matches 90 degree C insulated conductors such as THHN/THWN-2 without derating the connector. Ampacity of the circuit is still governed by the termination rating at the equipment, not by the splice.
5) Do I need to tape or insulate the Panduit SBC500-1 after making the splice?
Yes. A split bolt is a bare mechanical connector, the copper body is live once the splice is made, so it has to be insulated in the field with tape, a split bolt insulator cover, or heat shrink. Budget for that separately, nothing insulating is included with the connector.
6) Does the Panduit SBC500-1 meet federal Buy American / ARRA requirements and RoHS?
The SBC500-1 is flagged ARRA compliant and RoHS compliant, with no mercury content. Country of origin is Brazil, which matters if a project spec calls for domestic manufacture rather than ARRA compliance alone.
7) Should I use a split bolt or a compression splice on a 500 kcmil copper feeder?
A split bolt like the SBC500-1 is a mechanical, re-enterable splice, you tighten it with a wrench and no hydraulic tool or die set is needed, which is why it wins on service and repair work and in tight pull boxes. A compression sleeve gives a smaller insulated profile and is the choice where the splice must be irreversible or space in the enclosure is critical. For 300 to 500 kcmil copper-to-copper work with hand tools only, the split bolt is the practical option.
8) Is the Panduit SBC500-1 sold individually or in a box?
It ships as a single piece, one connector per standard package, with a minimum order of one. If you are splicing a three-phase feeder with a neutral, order four.
9) How much does one Panduit SBC500-1 weigh and how big is the package?
Standard package weight is 0.93 lb, in a carton measuring 4.4 by 3.15 by 2.5 inches. Useful if you are staging a box of these for a feeder splice job or checking van stock.
