Connectors & Grounding — Blackburn® Compression Connectors Featuring the Color-Keyed® System
Overview
The Thomas & Betts Method is Better.
The Thomas & Betts method of installing compression connectors on power cables is
designed to provide a high degree of reliability in electrical wiring. This method allows
electrical workers to make installations with little effort and at a considerable savings
in time. The benefit, of course, is a high-quality connection at a low installed cost.
Just Four Easy Steps
to a Perfect Connection!
Step 1
Carefully strip the insulation on de-energized
wires to avoid nicking or cutting conductors
(wire brush if required).
Strands
Cut

Strip
Strip the insulation to the proper length so that conductors
can be fully inserted into the connector barrel.

Step 2
Determine the proper Blackburn® Connector for the cable
size being used. Connectors are marked to show cable size.
Cable Size
• Connectors marked with just cable size or
CU should be used on copper conductors only.
• Connectors marked “AL9”* with the cable size
should be used on aluminum conductors only.
• Connectors marked “AL9CU” with the cable size
may be used on the aluminum or copper conductors.
* Aluminum lugs with a “9” indicate 90° C rating.

Step 4
Locate tool with correct die in proper position
on connector and activate tool.
When making multiple crimps, make the first crimp
nearest the tongue and work towards the barrel end.
When properly crimped, the die code number will be embossed
on the connector for easy inspection to determine if correct
die and connector combination were used.

Connectors & Grounding — Blackburn® Compression Connectors Featuring the Color-Keyed® System
Overview
Precision Dies Form
a Solid Homogenous Mass…
The T&B method utilizing compression tools with matching dies forms
the connector and conductor into a solid, homogenous mass to provide
an optimum electrical bond between connector and conductor.
Thomas & Betts method dies are designed to produce a circumferential,
hex- or diamond-shaped compression rather than a simple indent.
Precision dies are an integral part of the Thomas & Betts method. The
precision hardened steel dies exert tremendous, controlled pressure on
the connector and conductor. The dies compress the connector around
the cable, converting the round strands to hexagonal or diamond shapes
and forming the strands and connector into a solid mass. Each die
is designed so that all conductors receive the same amount of
compression force.
The circumferential compression creates a large area of high-pressure
contact between cable and connector which, in turn, assures high
conductivity, low resistance, and high pullout values which exceed
UL requirements. These features result in a permanent, low installed
cost connection. You can install it, and forget it.
The Thomas & Betts System Tells You Where to Place the Installing Die.
Blackburn® connectors featuring the Color-Keyed® system not only identify
the correct installing die to be used for positive compressions, but also
indicate the proper placement of the die on the connector. This is done
by the bands of color on the connector which match the color on the dies.
Compression is made between or on these color bands. The color name
is also spelled on the connector as an added means of identification.
Before compression, a typical cross
section of cable and connector consists
of about 75% metal and 25% air.
After air compression by the T&B Method,
the cross section looks like this, nearly
100% metal with v­ irtually no air spaces.
Thomas & Betts Dies Offer Inspection Capability.

Dies that are used in Thomas & Betts hand and hydraulic tools contain the
“die code” numbers which are engraved on the compression surface of the
die. Under compression, this number becomes embossed on the completed
connection for inspection purposes.
The inspector compares the die code number embossed on the connector
with the die table to ensure that the proper connector was compressed
with the correct die for that particular size conductor.

T&B manual tools with the exclusive Shure-Stake® mechanism
take the guesswork out of making compression connections. The
Shure-Stake® mechanism provides a full cycle compression stroke
every time. Once the stroke has started, the tool will not release the
connector until the proper amount of force has been applied. This is
your assurance of a fully compressed connection. T&B compression
tools develop uniform, controlled pressure to each connector within
their size range. Thomas & Betts offers electric and battery-powered
hydraulic pumps with a Shure-Stake® feature that guarantees a full
cycle compression.

Connectors & Grounding — Blackburn® Compression Connectors Featuring the Color-Keyed® System
Compression Connectors for Copper Conductor
Copper One-Hole Lugs for 600V to 35kV Applications
These connectors are recommended for up to 15kV applications. Installed with standard T&B
Cat. No. TBM15I, 13100A, TBM14M hydraulic compression tools with special rounding dies.
The compression forms the connector and conductor into a solid mass to provide an optimum
electrical bond between connector and conductor. The rounding die-overlapped compressions
provide a smooth, round surface. This, combined with the tapered barrel ends, addresses the
controlling of potentially damaging electrical stresses of high voltages.

Copper Reducing Splices
Thomas & Betts copper reducing splices are the most recent addition to the telecom
line of copper compression lugs and connectors. They are designed for use in Central
Office equipment installations in place of H-Taps in applications where the main cable is
stepped down. When space is at a premium and standard H-Tap splicing options are too
cumbersome, the Thomas & Betts reducing splices can be the right choice. These splices
are available for a range of cables from 750 Flex to 6 Code.
• Requires less “real estate” in a Central Office
• Does not require a cover other than clear heat shrink
• One-person installation — each side crimped separately
• Utilizes standard lug crimping dies — more standard tooling options —
lower tonnage tools can now install even the largest splice
• Hand tools can be used on splices for 500 Code/350 Flex and smaller
• Inspection holes verify cable is fully inserted into each barrel
Splices for the following cable combinations are available. Appropriate quantities
of pre-cut lengths of UL® Listed clear-heat shrink are provided with each splice.

Connectors & Grounding — Blackburn® Compression Connectors Featuring the Color-Keyed® System
Compression Connectors for Copper Conductor
Constant O.D. enables faster, easier installation
than contoured design.
Cast-Copper Reducing Splices
cond. 1
Thomas & Betts takes the splicing of different-sized conductors to a new
level of economy and efficiency with Cast-Copper Reducing Splices. In
addition to a lower cost, the key benefit to these splices is in their constant
outer diameter. Unlike screw-machined, externally contoured splices, CastCopper Reducing Splices require no change of tool or die between crimping
each end. Just slide each wire easily into the chamfered barrel, and use
the same Color-Keyed tool and die to crimp both ends. The consistent O.D.
also makes these splices faster and easier to insulate with clear heat-shrink
wrap than a contoured splice. Sand-cast construction ensures high tensile
strength for heavy-duty applications, and tin-plated copper material provides
high conductivity and superior corrosion resistance.
• Ideal for telecom (inside office/outside plant), commercial,
industrial MRO and any other 600V–35kV applications
requiring splicing of different-sized conductors
• Tin-plated, sand-cast copper construction provides
superior tensile strength, high conductivity, and
excellent corrosion resistance
• Easier to install and insulate than screw-machined,
contour-designed reducing splices
• Constant O.D. saves time on installation by
eliminating the need for crimp tool/die change
• Fast and simple to insulate with clear or colored
heat-shrink wrap
• Chamfered barrel facilitates easy wire insertion
• Compact, low-profile design takes up minimal
space in cable tray or wire run
• Simple installation with Blackburn® compression tools
(see pp. F-80–F-100) and dies (see pp. F-101–F-104)

These insulating covers
provide hard-shell insulated
protection for “H” type
compression taps and splices,
and because there is no taping
required, you get uniform
quality and appearance each
time. The exclusive locking
design provides the rangetaking capability. Only five
H-tap insulating catalog cover
numbers accommodate the
range of #6 AWG–1000 kcmil
in the main, and #12 AWG–
500 kcmil in the branch.
Interlocking insulating covers for “H” type compression taps. For use in splice boxes, indoors
or in tray indoors. Place the H-Tap in the cover. Snap the cover closed. Consult factory for
flame-retardant version.

KUBE Connectors Multi-Tap
®
Leave it to Thomas & Betts to bring you the most versatile, affordable
solution for multiple-load installations from a single main conductor.
The KUBE ® Multi-Tap system gangs multiple permanent, dependable
compression taps mounted on a high-conductivity copper rod to achieve
a space- and cost-efficient UL® Listed multiple-tap connection you
configure in the field. For even more flexibility, you can rotate connectors
individually on the Multi-Tap rod to accommodate the bends and angles
necessary to install equipment or complete circuitry — without the high
cost of flexible-conductor cable.
• Lowest installed cost for the application — eliminates
the need for expensive flexible-conductor cable
• Individual connectors can be rotated 360°
on rod for multi-directional connections
• Versatile, modular design supports a myriad
of connection possibilities
This Multi-Tap installation
connects 4/0, #1 and
#2 AWG cables using
MD40F-3, MD1F-3 and
MD2F-3 connectors with
REC-3 insulators on an
R3-6 rod.
• UL® 486AB Listed and CSA Certified for field installation
• Compression connections maintain integrity even under
vibration and high temperatures
• Supports wire sizes from #16 to 4/0 AWG
• Suitable for applications up to 600 volts
(1000 volts in signs and fixtures)
• Rods constructed of high-conductivity copper
with corrosion-resistant tin plating
• Connectors constructed of electro-tin plated high
conductivity copper with louvered contact bands
for reliable connections and color coding for easy
selection of crimping die
• Two-piece, UL94-V0-rated, polycarbonate insulators
snap onto connectors easily for fast, safe installation
Typical Applications
• Commercial construction
• Specialized installations for entertainment applications
• Gutter taps for all applications
• Any other application requiring the running of multiple
loads from a main conductor

How to Order KUBE ® Multi-Tap
• Choose your connectors. Note that connectors to be
mounted on a single Multi-Tap rod can be for different
wire sizes but must be of the same body size.
• Choose insulators of the appropriate body size for the
connectors. (One insulator required for each connector.)
• Choose a Multi-Tap rod that matches the body size of your
connectors and that has enough positions for the number
of connections you need.
3. R
emove one end nut and
spacers from Multi-Tap rod.
4. S lide connector/insulator
assemblies onto rod.

High-Amperage Quick Power Disconnects
• Unique construction:
- Made from 99.9% conductive copper,
silver plated
• Designed to be the fastest “off-load”
connection possible, while maintaining
system integrity
- Contact design features louvered band
of beryllium copper
• Uses a multicontact approach to provide
low insertion and extraction forces with
low resistance and temperature rise
- All raised edges of louvered band
are deflected, producing a multitude
of high-force contact points
• Enables multiple connections and
disconnections without changing or
degrading performance characteristics
- Each contact point is typically in the
force range of 8,000 to 10,000 psi
- High currents, caused by short circuits
or sudden surges, make contact
interface even more efficient
by increasing contact pressure

Kopr-Shield Joint Compound
®
• Unique, homogenized blend of pure,
polished colloidal copper, rust and
corrosion inhibitors
• Won’t settle-out, thin, thicken,
harden or dry out under the most
severe environmental conditions
• Simultaneously protects, lubricates
and enhances conductivity of mating
surfaces
• Excellent temperature characteristics
— can be brushed on at -50° F
to 250° F (other compounds either
turn solid or run like water at these
extremes) and remains intact at
short terms even at 1,800° F
• Extremely adhesive compound flows
smoothly into uneven contours and
voids, ensuring easy application and
complete, positive protection and
lubrication
• Reduce resistance
Good connections are one of the most important aspects of electrical work.
Mechanics know how much downtime is caused when fluids or oils leak
into the raceway system or when they have to look for a weak link in a
ground system caused by a high-resistance connection. Mechanics also
know how much time is spent keeping contacts, switches, lugs and other
connectors clean or replacing parts because of “green scourge” buildup.
Thomas & Betts has the solution to improve connections made in thousands
of electrical and raceway installations made each day by electricians
everywhere. Kopr-Shield ® Compound may be used to your advantage
in all electrical installations. When the environment is hostile to electrical
and mechanical connections, Kopr-Shield ® Compound is a must!

Connectors for Aluminum/Copper Code Conductor
For tight, secure bus-bar connections.
Belleville Compression Washers
• Essential when bolting aluminum lugs and connectors
to bus bars with steel or brass hardware
• Maintains constant pressure in heavy-duty,
high-temperature applications
• Available with or without flat washer
When bolting aluminum lugs and connectors to bus bars with steel or brass
hardware, the recommended practice to ensure a tight connection is to use
a Belleville spring washer on top of a flat washer under the bolt head or nut.
For heavy-duty service where the heat rise is expected to exceed 30° C above
ambient, this procedure maintains constant pressure as the connector metals
expand and contract with temperature changes.

Connectors & Grounding — Blackburn® Compression Connectors Featuring the Color-Keyed® System
Metric Connectors for Copper Conductor
One-Hole Metric Lugs
Blackburn® metric lugs are manufactured from electrolytic copper
tube. The dimensions of the tube are designed to obtain the most
efficient electrical conductivity and mechanical strength, resisting
vibration and pull out.
The presence of an inspection hole facilitates full insertion of the
conductor, and the barrel length is designed to allow easy and
accurate positioning of the dies during the crimping operation.
Lugs are electrolytically tin-plated to eliminate oxidation of
the copper material. Blackburn® metric lugs complement our
connector family and meet a growing need for customer’s
connector requirements. Details of the appropriate crimping tools
and dies are included. Our Technical Services group is always
available to provide any technical advice required. Please contact
them if sizes are needed additional to those shown
in this catalog.
Blackburn® metric lugs are annealed to guarantee optimum
ductility, which is a necessity for compression connectors having
to withstand severe deformation arising when compressed or
bending of the tongue that may happen during installation.
Connectors have to perform adequately with vibration loads,
and annealing is necessary to avoid material failure between
the barrel and the tongue.

Connectors & Grounding — Blackburn® Compression Connectors Featuring the Color-Keyed® System
Metric Connectors for Copper Conductor
Narrow-Tongue Metric Lugs
Blackburn® narrow-tongue metric lugs feature a contained tongue width.
Our lugs have been specifically developed for applications with L.V. circuit breakers with
reduced space requirements. The tongue width allows a quicker and easier installation.
ØI
Blackburn narrow-tongue metric lugs are manufactured from electrolytic copper tube.
®
The specific design of the barrel and dimensions create the best combination
of mechanical strength and electrical conductivity.
Blackburn® narrow-tongue metric lugs are annealed to guarantee optimum ductility and
are electrolytically tin-plated to avoid oxidation.
B
The barrel is provided with an internal chamfer for easy insertion of the conductor.
The length allows easy positioning of the dies for proper crimping.

TBM8-750M-1 12-Ton Dieless
Manual Hydraulic Tool
®
• Tool is “smart” because it requires no dies
• Automatically compresses to the correct depth
based on size of connector in jaws
Creates indent-style crimp
• C-type head swivels 90° for easy crimp positioning
• Forged steel construction is well suited for both
field and bench work

How the SMART® Tool Works
The SMART® Tool was engineered with built-in intelligence* that enables
it to sense the connector barrel diameter and automatically apply just the
right amount of compression force. This eliminates virtually all air spaces
and forms the connector and conductor strands into a solid mass, resulting
in a high-quality, low-resistance connection. In addition, the tool clearly
embosses “T&B” with each compression for positive verification that
the correct tool was used.
