Blackburn 10N – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Blackburn 10N connector be used on both aluminum and copper conductors?
Yes. The Blackburn 10N is a dual-rated AL-CU mechanical service entrance connector, so it can be used on aluminum or copper conductors. The body is copper alloy, supplied bare with no plating or insulation, which is why it must be used with the appropriate joint compound practice for aluminum work.
2) What wire size does the Blackburn 10N take?
The 10N is sized for 10 AWG stranded conductor, with a 9/32 inch outside diameter body. It is a two-conductor mechanical connector, so it joins two 10 AWG stranded runs rather than tapping a larger main.
3) Is the Blackburn 10N UL listed, and what voltage is it rated for?
It carries UL file E9809 and is rated to 35 kV. That rating covers service entrance and medium-voltage splice work where an inspector wants a listed mechanical connector on the conductor.
4) Do I need a crimping tool or hydraulic press for the 10N service entrance connector?
No press needed. The 10N is a mechanical connector, tightened with a wrench or hex driver rather than compressed, so it goes in with hand tools. If your spec calls for a compression splice, this is the wrong type of connector for that detail.
5) Does the Blackburn 10N come with any insulating cover or housing?
No. It ships bare with no enclosure and no insulation, so the splice has to be insulated in the field, taped, or made up inside a meter socket, pedestal, or other enclosure. Plan on that material separately.
6) How is the Blackburn 10N sold, individually or in a bag?
Each. The 10N is sold as a single connector, so order one per splice point. It is made in the United States.
7) What is the exact part number to order the Blackburn 10 AWG service entrance connector?
The manufacturer part number is 10N from Blackburn. It is a single-model item, so there are no finish or size options to specify.
