I've Always used Aluminum/Copper split bolt connectors.
But the other day i put my self in a bind by not checking my supplies in my truck before a job.
We were upgrading a service.Thought over head wire from Trans. were copper, not they were aluminum. We were 30 miles to closest supply store.
I used regular copper (or whatever they are made of)split bolts.
I put a whole lot of an antioxidant grease that i carry in my truck, for copper to aluminum connections.
-Has anyone done that before?
-Do you trust that antioxidant?
-Do you evenl use it if using aproved AL/CU split bolts?
Thanks.
