HTC Series Hotline Tap Connector

Specifications

  • Full current rated for use as an in-line Jumper OR device tap.
  • An increased conductive path and surface contact area between the main and tap line increases current ampacity rating.
  • Typical applications are transformers, lightning arrestors, cutouts, ect.
  • Can be installed directly to the main line.  No need for using a bail or stirrup.
  • Incorporates the use of a stainless steel eyebolt for increased strength and corrosion resistance.
  • Constructed of 6061-T6 structural Aluminum alloy to provide high strength and conductivity.
  • Exclusive high-conductivity grit type corrosion inhibitor is factory applied for ease of installation and longevity while the connector is in service.
  • Remains permanently locked through fault current or power surges.
  • Horizontal wedge action prevents the conductor from sticking during the removal process.
  • easy to remove without damaging cable.

CPI HTC Series connectors are designed for use as a permanent or temporary connection on Aluminum or Copper wire.

Through utilization of the wedge principal, the HTC series tap maximizes interfacing force on the conductor and creates a self-maintaining spring wedge connection.

The elastic spring connecting force created by the connector ensures the ability of the HTC series tap to stay tight during service by overcoming the loosening problems associated with heat cycling.

An increased conductive path between the main line and the tap line allows the connector to be full current rated. Benefits are a cost-effective one step process to create a temporary tap or a permanent connection. The HTC connector is equipped with a high strength stainless steel eyebolt to ensure easy installation or removal and fdeatures a high quality 6061 T6 aluminum alloy construction to provide strength and conductivity.

The HTC connector is a versatile product that can accept wires ranging from #4 thru 954, with only three different part numbers, making it a valuable component of any tap connection solution.
