Overview
3M Motor Lead Pigtail Splice Kit 5324 is designed for pigtail (stub) splicing of motor lead cables to incoming feeder cables in industrial applications. The splice kit is designed for polymeric insulated cables and is suitable for indoor use with a maximum voltage of 5/8 kV. Manufactured in the USA, this kit supports both shielded and non-shielded cable configurations. Each box contains three complete splice kits.
