Blackburn E-6H-25 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes does the Blackburn E-6H-25 split bolt connector take?
The E-6H-25 handles a 6 AWG solid main run with taps down to 10 AWG solid. It is a main-and-tap connector, so the larger conductor runs through the bolt slot as the main and the smaller lands as the tap.
2) Can I use a split bolt connector on copper grounding conductors without corrosion problems?
The E-6H-25 body is silicon bronze alloy, which is the standard material for copper-to-copper mechanical taps and grounding connections. Bronze against copper avoids the dissimilar-metal galvanic issue you would get with a plain steel bolt. It is a copper connector, not rated here for aluminum.
3) Do split bolts need to be taped or insulated after installation?
Yes. A split bolt like the E-6H-25 is a bare mechanical connector, so any tap made on an insulated circuit conductor has to be re-insulated with tape or an insulating cover after torquing. On bare equipment grounding or bonding conductors no insulation is required.
4) Can I use a split bolt instead of a compression or crimp connector for a ground tap?
A split bolt is a mechanical connector, so it is removable and reusable and needs no crimp tool or die set, which is why it is the common choice for field taps and retrofit work. A compression connector is the better pick where you want an irreversible joint or where the connection may be direct buried. The E-6H-25 covers 6 AWG solid main to 10 AWG solid tap.
5) Is the Blackburn E-6H-25 sold individually or in a box?
It is sold each, so you order the exact count you need rather than a fixed carton. Useful when you are only making a handful of taps on a service or grounding electrode run.
6) What is the exact part number and origin for the Blackburn 6 AWG split bolt?
The part is Blackburn E-6H-25, a split-bolt connector made in Mexico. Quote that number when matching existing taps in a panel or standardizing across a facility.
