Designed for speed, durability and safety, the Morris Products 97017 in-line splice connector is a rugged, pre-insulated solution for splicing conductors from #2 to #14 AWG. Dual-rated for copper and aluminum, this connector simplifies installation while helping ensure reliable electrical performance.
Key Features
- Wire range: #2 through #14 AWG (one conductor per set screw)
- Rated for 600 Volts system voltage
- Dual rated (CU9AL) aluminum and copper compatible 6061-T6 aluminum alloy body
- Pre-insulated with a high-dielectric black rubber/vinyl coating for added safety in wireways, troughs, gutters, panels and ducts
- Pre-filled with oxide inhibitor for improved long-term reliability in potential corrosion environments
- Marked plugs over each entry port indicate maximum wire size, and are removable for inspection or re-entry — making maintenance or changes easier
- Temperature rating: –49 °F to 194 °F (–45 °C to 90 °C) — suitable for use with 90 °C (194 °F) cables in typical indoor installations
- Listings: ANSI C119.4 & cULus 486B (ensures compliance with recognized connector standards)
- Compact footprint for space-constrained enclosures: ~3.46″ L × 0.82″ W × 1.62″ H
- UPC / Barcode: 601986970174

Why Choose This Connector?
When you’re dealing with demanding electrical applications, choosing the right connector can save time, reduce maintenance and improve reliability. The 97017 splice from Morris Products is engineered to perform in a wide range of environments, thanks to its dual-rated construction (aluminum and copper compatibility), pre-insulated body that eliminates the need for field taping, and full oxide‐inhibitor fill to guard against corrosion. It’s an ideal option for OEMs, panel builders, maintenance teams or building contractors who want splicing simplicity without sacrificing safety or performance.
Installation Notes
- Ensure conductors are stripped to the correct length and are clean of contaminants.
- Insert one conductor (#2-14 AWG) into each port and tighten the set screws per manufacturer’s torque specification (refer to Morris documentation).
- Replace the marked access plugs when installation is complete to preserve insulation integrity and maintain access for future service.
- Use in environments up to 600 V and with ambient temperatures from -49 °F to 194 °F.
- The product is designed for indoor use in wireways, panels, troughs and similar installation spaces — verify suitability for specific outdoor or harsh environment conditions before use.
Note: Always follow national and local electrical codes, and consult manufacturer’s specification sheets or Morris Products technical support if used in special or extreme applications.
