Reducing connectors are designed for splicing
aluminum to copper conductors of equal
ampacities. Connectors are made in the right
combination of equivalent sizes. (Example: one
end for 4/0 aluminum, the other end for 2/0
copper.)
• Material – High Conductivity Wrought
Aluminum
• Finish – Electro-TIn Plated
Selection table gives aluminum/copper equivalents for all sizes. Connectors are filled with a high temperature oxide
inhibiting compound.
