Splicer blocks
Catalog number example:
16204-3 is a 3-pole 16204
Where:
• The prefix “16204” defines the block’s lineside
and loadside characteristics (i.e., conductor port
per pole that accepts 2/0 - #14 Cu, or 2/0 - #12
Al conductors).
• The suffix “3” in this example defines this as a
three-pole block.
• See the catalog number tables for details on the
available lineside/loadside characteristics.
Catalog symbols:
• 160__-(poles)
• 162__-(poles)
• 163__-(poles)
• 165__-(poles)
Description:
Bussmann^® series splicer blocks allow for
increasing or decreasing wire size within a circuit
to accommodate different connections from the
power source to the branch load.
Splicer blocks are available for wire sizes up to 500
kcmil and amp ratings up to 760 A.
They are UL^® Recognized to UL 1059 and rated for
use in UL 508A industrial control panels.
These blocks are factory configured from 1- to
4-poles (catalog number dependent) with optional
covers available to enhance safety (order covers
separately).
How to order:
From the catalog number tables, select the catalog
number that defines the desired lineside/loadside
port and conductor characteristics.
Add to the catalog number the suffix that defines
the desired pole configuration. Note, you must
select from the available number of poles for
each catalog number. These appear in the second
column of the catalog number tables.
Specifications:
