  • TypeElectrical Connectors
  • 1/0 AWG capacity handles large-gauge power cables
  • Cross-linked polyolefin tubing withstands 221 °F operating temperature
  • Adhesive-lined heat shrink seals out moisture on motor and pool wiring
  • Aluminium and copper conductor compatibility covers both common wire types
  • 32 in maximum cable OD fits standard motor lead and power cables

IDEAL 46-402 Splice Kit

The IDEAL 46-402 splice kit provides insulated connections for motor leads, pool wiring, and power cables. It suits electricians and maintenance technicians joining aluminium or copper conductors up to 1/0 AWG. The kit includes heat-shrink tubing with an adhesive liner for a sealed, durable joint.

Cross-Linked Polyolefin Temperature Limit

The cross-linked polyolefin tubing is rated to a maximum operating temperature of 221 degrees F. This limit defines the thermal headroom for the insulation after shrinking. Installers must ensure the application environment and conductor heating stay below this threshold to maintain seal integrity.

Conductor Capacity and Cable Fit

The connector bodies accept aluminium or copper wire with a maximum outer diameter of 0.32 in. This dimension sets the practical upper bound for cable size in motor and pool circuits. Cables exceeding this diameter will not fit the supplied tubing and connector bodies.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 1/0 AWG kit or a smaller size for my motor lead cable?

This kit is rated for 1/0 AWG maximum and covers motor lead cable, pool wire, and power cables with a maximum cable OD of 0.32 in.

What does the 221 °F rating mean when the splice is buried in insulation?

The cross-linked polyolefin tubing with adhesive liner is rated to a maximum operating temperature of 221 °F, so it remains sealed and insulated at that temperature.

Does the aluminum body with steel contacts work on both copper and aluminum conductors?

Yes, the connector is listed as compatible with both aluminum and copper conductor material.
