    Set Screw Butt Splices

    These splices connect thicker wires than crimp-on butt splices—up to 1000 MCM. Tighten the set screw onto the wire instead of crushing the body, like you do with compression butt splices. That makes these splices reusable and easier to install.
    PVC Cover—Completely cover the splice to protect wires from short circuits. The tip can be trimmed to fit your wire size. Cable ties cinch the cover onto the wire.

    End caps seal off the wire to keep your connection completely dry and conductive. Set screws cinch the wire without denting the body, so you can pop splices on and off for adjustments and reuse. For cable, attach each wire to its own set screw.
