Notes 1. To order Parallel Groove Clamps prefilled with Alnox Compound, add P or W suffix to part number. See ordering information below. 2. The use of Alnox Compound liberally in grooves and on wire is recommended. Be sure conductors are clean. All conductors (new and old) should be thoroughly cleaned with a scratch brush or emery cloth. 3. Extensive field experience and exposure tests show that if a suitable type joint compound is liberally applied over and around the contact area, copper-to-aluminum electric connections can be made satisfactorily with aluminum clamps without copper bushings. Alnox Compound is recommended. Standard groove numbers are used for the complete range of clamps and connectors. These numbers are incorporated into the AFL part number itself.
