Ilsco CSWD-2-38-1 Compression Dead End Connector

Product Description

The ILSCO CSWD-2-38-1 is a compression dead end connector designed for overhead line work and utility distribution applications. This fitting mechanically terminates a conductor at a fixed anchor point, transferring tension load away from the splice or termination. It is installed by licensed electricians and utility linemen working on aerial conductor runs. The CSWD-2-38-1 is a single-unit component rated for field compression installation using a standard crimping tool matched to the connector body dimensions.

This connector is used in overhead utility and service entrance applications where a conductor must be anchored at a dead end point, such as at a pole, bracket, or building attachment. It is suited for residential and light commercial aerial service work. Installation typically occurs on de-energized lines, and the compression fitting provides a secure, corrosion-resistant mechanical hold on the conductor.

Key Features

• Compression-style installation for a secure, consistent mechanical grip on the conductor
• Dead end design transfers full conductor tension load to the anchor point
• Single-piece construction simplifies field installation
• Suited for overhead service entrance and utility distribution line work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression dead end connector for overhead conductor termination applications typical in residential and commercial utility service work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or licensed lineman in accordance with NEC requirements and local utility standards. De-energize and lock out the conductor before installing or removing any dead end hardware. Use only the compression die size specified for this connector body to ensure full crimp engagement. Inspect the conductor for damage before seating it in the fitting.
