Panduit PSCBLU-L Copper Compression Parallel Splice

Product Description

The PANDUIT PSCBLU-L is a copper compression parallel splice connector used to join two conductors in a parallel configuration without the need for inline splicing. The connector is installed using a compression tool, which cold-forms the copper body around both conductors to create a mechanically secure and electrically reliable joint. This type of connector is a staple in electrical distribution work, panel wiring, and service entrance applications where maintaining conductor continuity and minimizing resistance at the splice point are critical.

Parallel splice connectors like the PSCBLU-L are used in residential and commercial electrical installations where two conductors must be joined mid-run or at a tap point. They are suited for use in conduit, junction boxes, and service panels. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors are the typical installers, particularly in applications governed by NEC requirements for conductor splicing and insulation restoration.

Key Features

• Copper body construction for reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Compression-style installation ensures a cold-formed, gas-tight connection
• Parallel splice design joins two conductors without cutting the run
• Sold as a single unit (each)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use compression parallel splice connector for copper conductor electrical applications. No specific compatible model numbers were provided in the product data.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a calibrated compression tool rated for the connector size. Always de-energize and lock out the circuit before working on any splice point, in accordance with NFPA 70 (NEC) lockout/tagout requirements. After compression, inspect the connection for full seating and apply listed electrical tape or heat-shrink insulation to restore the insulation system to the original rating. This work should be performed by a licensed electrician.
