Blackburn FBE2H110A1-12 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What standards does the Blackburn FBE2H110A1-12 braid connector meet?
Blackburn lists this braid connector to CEI 60694 and IEEE/ANSI C37.34-1994. C37.34 is the test code covering high-voltage air switches and their connection components, which is the reference a utility or substation spec usually calls out for flexible connectors.
2) How long is the Blackburn XFLEX braid connector and what are its flat dimensions?
It measures 3/8 x 1.5 x 12 inches, and the cable length is listed at 12 inches. That is the overall braid run you have to work with, so measure your gap between pads plus enough slack for the movement you are trying to absorb before committing to this size.
3) Why use a flexible braid connector instead of a solid copper bar between two bus pads?
A flexible braid is what you put in when the two connection points move relative to each other, from thermal expansion, vibration, or equipment that has to be racked or shifted for service. The FBE2H110A1-12 is an extra flexible flat braid, so it carries the connection without transmitting mechanical stress into the terminals the way a rigid bar or a drilled copper bar does. If both pads are fixed and static, a solid bar is the simpler choice.
4) Is the Blackburn flexible braid connector tin plated, and does that matter for aluminum bus?
The conductor is tin-plated copper. The tin plating is what lets you land it on aluminum bus or aluminum terminal pads without bare copper to aluminum contact, and it holds up better in damp or outdoor switchyard conditions than unplated copper. Use the joint compound and hardware your bus spec calls for.
5) Does the FBE2H110A1-12 come as a single piece or in a multi-pack?
It sells as each, one braid connector per unit, under part number FBE2H110A1-12. If you are jumpering a bank of switches or a row of pads, count one per connection point pair and order that quantity.
