Blackburn FBE1H050A3-10-5 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What bolt size do the terminal pads on this Blackburn XFLEX braid take?
The pads are drilled 7/16 inch, one hole per end, which suits a 3/8 inch bolt with clearance. Check the drilling on your bus pad or switchgear terminal matches a single 7/16 hole pattern; two-hole NEMA pads need a 2-hole braid instead, not this one.
2) Is the FBE1H050A3-10-5 braid suitable for switchgear and disconnect switch connections per spec?
It is built to CEI60694 and IEEE/ANSI C37.34-1994, the standard for design tests on switchgear and high-voltage air switches, so it can be cited on a switchgear or disconnect submittal. That is the specific standards reference on the part, and it's the one a spec engineer will be looking for.
3) What is the exact part number to order this Blackburn braid connector by?
Order Blackburn part number FBE1H050A3-10-5. Within the FBE series, the number encodes the 1-hole end configuration and the 10.5 inch length, so a different length or hole count is a different part number, not an option on this one.
4) Why tin-plated copper braid instead of bare copper for a shunt connection?
The tin plating on the copper braid slows oxidation at the bolted interface, which keeps contact resistance stable over time and makes it a better match for aluminum or plated bus pads than bare copper. On an outdoor or damp substation connection, that plating is the difference between a joint you re-torque and one you leave alone.
5) Does the Blackburn FBE1H050A3-10-5 ship as one piece or in a pack, and where is it made?
Sold each, one braid per unit, so quantity ordered equals the number of jumpers you get. Country of origin is the United States, which matters if you're working a Buy American or domestic-preference job.
