Blackburn PAE3921-9-2-B3 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What conductor sizes does the Blackburn PAE3921-9-2-B3 parallel groove clamp cover?
The PAE3921-9-2-B3 is a CONTAX parallel groove clamp rated for the 397.5 through 3/0 conductor range, which is how the two grooves are sized. The larger groove takes the run conductor up to 397.5, the smaller side the tap down to 3/0. If your run or tap falls outside that span, you need a different catalog number in the CONTAX series rather than this one.
2) Is this a bolted mechanical connector or does it need a compression tool?
It is a bolted mechanical connector, so no hydraulic press or die set is required. You dress the conductors, seat them in the parallel grooves, and torque the bolts. That makes it the usual choice for field taps and repairs where bringing a compression tool and the right die to the pole or pad is impractical.
3) Will a parallel groove clamp work for connecting two conductors running side by side, or do I need an H-tap?
A parallel groove clamp like the PAE3921-9-2-B3 is built exactly for the side by side case: the two conductors lie parallel in machined grooves and the clamp bolts them together. Use a compression H-tap instead when the specification calls for a permanent crimped connection, or when you need a tap at an angle rather than parallel to the run.
4) What is the exact part number to order for the CONTAX 397.5-3/0 parallel groove clamp?
Blackburn manufacturer part number PAE3921-9-2-B3. That single number covers the CONTAX 397.5 to 3/0 parallel groove clamp, so distributors and purchasing agents can quote it without selecting a finish or size option.
5) Is the Blackburn PAE3921-9-2-B3 sold individually or in a bag?
Sold each, so the quantity you order is the number of clamps you get. Order one per connection point, and add spares if you are making up a run of taps in the field.
6) Where is the Blackburn CONTAX PAE3921-9-2-B3 clamp manufactured?
Manufactured in Mexico. Utility and municipal buyers who have to record country of origin on submittals or on a Buy America style review can list Mexico (MX) for this part.
