SCSS1-Q Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SCSS1-Q is a terminal butt splice connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, designed for inline, individual openings crimp termination applications. This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent parts for continued procurement and system maintenance. The SCSS1-Q accommodates 1 AWG wire gauge with non-insulated construction and green color coding. Obsolete status requires engineers to identify functionally equivalent active alternatives to maintain supply chain continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SCSS1-Q is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain consistent across equivalent parts:

Core Functional Parameters:

• Terminal Type: Butt Splice, Inline, Individual Openings
• Wire Gauge: 1 AWG
• Number of Wire Entries: 2
• Termination Method: Crimp
• Insulation: Non-Insulated

Compliance Parameters:

• Manufacturer: Panduit Corp
• Category: Terminals
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• ECCN: EAR99
• HTSUS Code: 8536.90.4000

The substitute part SCS1-Q maintains all core functional parameters and compliance requirements while transitioning from obsolete to active product status. This substitution preserves electrical and mechanical compatibility while ensuring continued availability and regulatory compliance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection: SCS1-Q

The SCS1-Q is the active equivalent substitute for the obsolete SCSS1-Q. Both components are manufactured by Panduit Corp and share identical wire gauge (1 AWG), termination method (crimp), and export classification (EAR99, HTSUS 8536.90.4000). The SCS1-Q maintains active product status with higher inventory availability (1108 pieces versus 660 pieces), ensuring supply chain continuity.

The transition from SCSS1-Q to SCS1-Q does not introduce electrical or mechanical incompatibility. Both components function as 1 AWG butt splice terminals with crimp termination for inline, individual openings applications. The SCS1-Q's active status and superior inventory position make it the appropriate selection for new designs and ongoing procurement requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SCS1-Q directly replace the SCSS1-Q in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components share identical wire gauge (1 AWG), termination method (crimp), and terminal configuration (butt splice, inline, individual openings). The SCS1-Q is manufactured by the same supplier (Panduit Corp) and maintains equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The SCSS1-Q is classified as obsolete. The SCS1-Q is the active equivalent that maintains all functional parameters while ensuring continued product availability and supply chain reliability.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: Both components share the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS code (8536.90.4000). The SCS1-Q's MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) indicates superior moisture handling compared to the SCSS1-Q's Not Applicable designation, providing additional environmental robustness.

Q: What wire gauge does the SCS1-Q accommodate?

A: The SCS1-Q is rated for 1 AWG wire, identical to the SCSS1-Q specification.

Q: How many wire entries does the SCS1-Q support?

A: The SCS1-Q functions as a butt splice terminal with two wire entries, maintaining the same configuration as the SCSS1-Q.

Q: Is the SCS1-Q RoHS compliant?

A: The SCS1-Q is manufactured by Panduit Corp and shares the same product category and export classification as the SCSS1-Q. Compliance documentation should be verified through the manufacturer's current technical specifications.

Q: What is the current inventory status of the SCS1-Q?

A: The SCS1-Q has 1108 pieces of new original stock available, providing superior availability compared to the SCSS1-Q's 660 pieces.
