Blackburn SWD210A1608 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How many bolt holes does the SWD210A1608 braid link have per pad?
Four. It is a 4-hole connector, so both terminal pads land on a standard NEMA four-bolt drilling pattern. If your bus or transformer terminal is drilled two-hole, this link will not line up and you need a 2-hole braid instead.
2) Is the Blackburn SWD210A1608 rated 2100 amps?
Yes, the SWD210A1608 is a 2100 A switchgear transformer link. The current capacity comes from the flexible tin-plated copper braid section, and it is sold each, so a three-phase connection takes three of them.
3) What is the Blackburn SWD210A1608 flexible braid connector used for?
It's a flexible switchgear transformer link, a flat tin-plated copper braid used to make the flexible connection between bus, transformer terminals and switchgear where rigid bus would transmit vibration or thermal movement. It is a 4-hole flexible braid connector, built to IEEE / ANSI C37, 34.
4) Why is this braid link tin-plated instead of bare copper?
The tin plating on the copper braid resists oxidation at the bolted joint, which is what keeps contact resistance and joint temperature down over time. It also lets the pads bolt to aluminum bus without the galvanic problem you get from bare copper on aluminum.
5) Does a flexible braid link meet switchgear standards for transformer connections?
The SWD210A1608 is built to IEEE / ANSI C37, 34, the standards family covering switchgear connection hardware. It is also made in the United States.
6) Should I use a flexible braid link or rigid bus between a transformer and switchgear?
Use a flexible braid where the two ends move relative to each other, from transformer vibration, thermal expansion or field misalignment between the pad and the gear. Rigid bus is fine only when both ends are fixed and the alignment is exact. The SWD210A1608 is the flexible flat-braid answer, 608 mm long with four-hole pads on each end.
7) What is the exact part number to order this Blackburn transformer link by?
Order it as Blackburn SWD210A1608. That single model covers the 2100 A, 4-hole, 608 mm flat flexible braid link, and it is priced and sold as each.
