Blackburn SP6SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What material is the Blackburn SP6SS made of, and can it be used in direct burial or outdoor service entrance work?
Bronze body. Bronze is the standard conductor material for grounding and bonding connectors used in damp, outdoor, and direct-burial service entrance locations because it resists corrosion and is compatible with copper conductors. The SP6SS has no insulation on it, so it is a bare mechanical connector, not an insulated splice.
2) Can I use the Blackburn SP6SS with aluminum conductors?
The SP6SS is a bronze connector. Bronze bodied mechanical connectors are intended for copper conductors; for aluminum or combination copper/aluminum runs you want a connector specifically marked AL9CU or a tin-plated aluminum body. Match the connector marking to the conductor metal to avoid a dissimilar metal connection.
3) What exactly is a Blackburn SP6SS used for on a job?
It is a mechanical grounding connector for service entrance work, the bronze hardware that bonds a grounding electrode conductor at the service. Mechanical means it is torqued down with a setscrew or bolt rather than compressed with a crimp tool, so no hydraulic dies are needed to install it.
4) Is the Blackburn SP6SS sold individually or in a box of multiples?
It is sold each, one connector per unit, so order the exact count you need for the job rather than a carton quantity. Order it by manufacturer part number SP6SS.
5) Where is the Blackburn SP6SS manufactured?
Made in Mexico. Buyers with domestic sourcing requirements on federally funded work should note the country of origin before specifying it.
