Blackburn E-2HPS-25 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the E-2HPS-25 split bolt copper or aluminum?
Copper alloy. That makes it a copper-to-copper connector for grounding and tap splices on copper conductors, not a dual-rated AL/CU device. If you are tapping aluminum conductor, use a connector specifically rated AL9CU.
2) Will a split bolt connector work on stranded wire, or is the E-2HPS-25 solid only?
The E-2HPS-25 is specified for 2 solid through 8 solid. If your conductors are stranded, pick the split bolt sized for stranded copper in that range rather than assuming this one covers it, since the size band published for this connector is the solid-wire band.
3) Can I use a split bolt like the Blackburn E-2HPS-25 for a grounding electrode tap?
Split bolts are the common mechanical choice for bonding and grounding taps on copper conductors, and the E-2HPS-25 is a mechanical connector built for that kind of solid-wire splice in the 2 through 8 AWG range. Keep in mind a mechanical connector is not a substitute for an exothermic weld where the spec calls for an irreversible connection, and split bolt splices are generally accessible-location work rather than direct burial unless the connector itself is listed for it.
4) Does the E-2HPS-25 come as a single connector or in a box?
It is sold each, so one connector per unit ordered. Order the count your job needs, one per splice.
5) Do I need to tape or insulate a split bolt splice after installing it?
Yes. A split bolt like this one is a bare copper alloy mechanical connector with no insulation of its own, so a splice made in a circuit conductor has to be re-insulated with tape or a split bolt insulating cover. Bonding jumpers and grounding electrode conductors are typically left bare.
6) Where is the Blackburn E-2HPS-25 manufactured?
Country of origin is Mexico. Worth knowing if you are submitting on a job with origin reporting or domestic-preference requirements.
