Blackburn AMTD35068 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire range does the Blackburn AMTD35068 multi-tap connector accept?
The AMTD35068 is a 350-6 connector, meaning each of its ports takes conductors from 350 kcmil down to 6 AWG. That range is stated in the product designation itself (AMT 8 POS BOTH SIDE INS CN 350-6), so a feeder tap on 4/0 or 250 kcmil and smaller branch runs at 2 AWG or 6 AWG all land inside the same block.
2) How many conductors can I land in the Blackburn AMTD35068, and are the ports on one side or both?
Eight positions, with ports on both sides of the block (the "8 POS BOTH SIDE" in the part description). That layout suits a feeder in on one face and taps out the other, which is how these get used for splitting a service or lighting feeder into multiple branch runs.
3) Is the Blackburn AMTD35068 tap block insulated, or do I have to tape and boot it?
It comes insulated (the "INS" in AMT 8 POS BOTH SIDE INS CN 350-6), so the conductor block is already covered and you are not building up tape or a separate cover in the enclosure. Port openings still need to be filled or plugged per your inspector's preference.
4) What voltage is the Blackburn AMTD35068 rated for, and is it UL listed?
Rated 600 V, and it carries UL file E9809. That covers standard commercial and industrial 120/208, 277/480 and similar distribution work where an electrical inspector wants a listed tap device rather than a field-made splice.
5) Can I use the AMTD35068 tap connector on copper and aluminum conductors?
The conductor body is aluminum, which is the standard AL9CU-style dual-rated construction used for these multi-tap blocks, so it is intended for aluminum feeders as well as copper. Match your torque values to the markings on the block when you land the conductors.
6) Do I get one block or a set when I order the AMTD35068?
It sells each, so one insulated 8-position block per order. For a three-phase plus neutral split you'd need four of them, one per pole, so quantity up accordingly.
7) Is the Blackburn AMTD35068 made in the USA for a Buy American job?
Country of origin is the United States, which matters on federally funded and government MRO work where domestic-source documentation is required for electrical materials.
8) What is the exact part number and color of this Blackburn 8-port tap block?
Blackburn AMTD35068 is the manufacturer part number, and the insulated cover is black. Distributors cross-referencing it will see it described as an AMT-series both-side insulated connector rated 350-6.
