Blackburn TC-2 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Blackburn TC-2 actually used for on a tap connection?
The TC-2 is an insulating cover for an aluminum parallel tap connector. It goes over the finished tap to insulate the exposed connection, rather than making the connection itself. It is black molded plastic with no surface finishing applied.
2) What voltage and temperature is the Blackburn TC-2 tap cover rated for?
600 V, with a temperature rating of 90 C (194 F). That covers standard 600 V building wire taps in panels, gutters, and junction boxes, and it matches 90 C rated conductor insulation.
3) Does the Blackburn TC-2 come with the tap connector, or is it just the cover?
Just the cover. The TC-2 is sold each as an insulating cover only, so the parallel tap connector itself has to be ordered separately. Count one cover per tap when you are taking off a job.
4) Is the Blackburn TC-2 insulating cover UL listed?
It carries UL file E9809. That is the reference an inspector or spec reviewer will want when the tap cover is part of a listed 600 V connection assembly.
5) Can I use the Blackburn TC-2 cover on aluminum conductors, or copper only?
It is meant for aluminum parallel tap connectors, and the tap hardware it covers is dual-rated, so copper and aluminum conductors are both in play. The cover itself is non-conductive plastic and makes no electrical contact, so the conductor metal does not restrict it.
6) What part number do I order for the Blackburn parallel tap insulating cover?
Blackburn TC-2. One model, no size or color options to specify, made in the United States.
