INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS For Use as a Run and Tap Information Sheet Item: Insul-Eater Connector Catalog Number: IPC-4/0-2/0 Size Range: 4/0 - #2 Run, 2/0 - #6 Tap Applications: Insulated and/or Bare Stranded Conductor, Copper and/or Aluminum Voltage Rating: 600 Volts to Ground, Max. Temperature Rating: 90° C Suggested Torque: 300 Inch Pounds Suggested Tools: Socket Wrench 8" Handle, 1/2" Socket • Connector can be used for any combination of bare conductor, copper and aluminum. • Connector can be used for any combination of insulated conductor, copper or aluminum. However, the Tap side is limited to conductors with a maximum O.D. (including insulation) of .528. The following classes of 2/0 conductors, aluminum and copper can be used: Type THHN, THWN, MTW and XHHW. • Connector is fully insulated without an external cover or tape and rated 600 volts. • Connector insulation does not have to be stripped teeth pierce through the insulation. • Connector can be installed on energized conductor "provided" there is no active load connected to the tap conductor being installed in the connector. 1. Cut insulated cable end squarely and apply crisscrossed layer of UL listed vinyl electrical tape. Two pieces of tape measuring approximately three (3) inches long. 2. Remove the tap blocking the large conductor channel. Tab can be broken off by loosening connector halves and pushing with thumb inward on tab. Tab must break off cleanly at the bottom of the channel. Cut the end of the tap conductor to be inserted into the connector off squarely. 3. Insert the conductor into the connector. BE SURE THE TAP CONDUCTOR IS PUSHED ALL THE WAY THROUGH TO THE TAB. 4. Center the conductors over the piercing teeth. Finger tighten the bolt until the conductors are firmly gripped by the teeth. 5. Tighten the connector to 300 inch pounds of torque. BE SURE THE LINES ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE BOTTOM HALF OF THE CONNECTOR ARE PARALLEL WITH THE NIB OF THE TOP HALF OF THE CONNECTOR. IF THE NIB DOES NOT LINE UP PARALLEL, LOOSEN THE CONNECTOR AND REINSERT THE TAP CONDUCTOR ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE CONNECTOR TO THE TAB. Note: WHEN INSTALLING BARE CONDUCTOR Steps 1 thru 5 can be followed. But for best conductor performance the tabs should be broken out of both channels and tap conductor should extend through the channel and out the rear of the connector at least 1½ to 2 inches.
