These Compression Splices are specially designed for applications on ACFR (Aluminum Conductor Fiber Reinforced) conductor only. Designs utilize a dual compression product requiring compression of a steel component around the steel core and an aluminum component around the aluminum wire OD. Compression of products can be completed with industry standard presses and dies.

  • Splice Body: Aluminum component of dead end assembly that is compressed around the OD of the conductor.

  • The Compression Splices are specially designed for applications on ACFR conductors.

  • Design allows for continuous conductor operating temperature up to 180° C and 2-hour 200° C emergency operating temperature.

  • Holding Strength: 95% or more of the conductor rated breaking strength (RBS) in accordance with ANSI C119.4 requirements for splice tensile strength.

  • Compression of products can be completed with industry standard presses and specialty dies. Please contact PLP for information on purchasing compression dies for ACCC applications.


    Includes:

  • Splice Body: Aluminum component of the splice assembly that is compressed around the OD of the conductor.

  • Inner Sleeve: Provides spacing between the conductor and the splice body to allow for compression.

  • Steel Core Sleeve: Steel component of the splice assembly that is compressed around the OD of the composite core
