Burndy 1PLO202 UNITAP 2-Port Multi-Tap Connector, UV Rated Black

Burndy UNITAP 2-Port Multi-Tap Connector, UV Rated Black

The Burndy UNITAP 2-Port Multi-Tap Connector is a UV rated black mechanical connector engineered for reliable run/tap connections in commercial, industrial, and utility power distribution applications. Featuring an offset entry design and a 2-port configuration, this connector accepts copper conductors from #14 AWG to 2/0 AWG and aluminum stranded conductors from 8 AWG to 2/0 AWG, making it a versatile choice for mixed-conductor tap installations. An oxide inhibitor is pre-installed at the factory, helping ensure a low-resistance, corrosion-resistant connection without additional field prep or added installation steps.

Key Features

• Multi-Tap Connector Type: Configured as a mechanical multi-tap connector for splicing run and tap conductors at a single connection point, reducing the number of parts needed on the job.
• 2-Port Configuration: Two ports accommodate run and tap conductors in a single compact connector body for efficient circuit tapping.
• Offset Entry Design: Offset entry geometry simplifies conductor routing and installation within tight enclosures, gutters, and junction boxes.
• UV Rated Black Housing: UV rated black construction supports long-term use in outdoor, sun-exposed installations without premature degradation.
• Copper Conductor Range: Accepts copper conductors from #14 AWG to 2/0 AWG for flexibility across circuit sizes.
• Aluminum Conductor Range: Accepts aluminum stranded conductors from 8 AWG to 2/0 AWG, supporting mixed copper-to-aluminum tap connections.
• Pre-Installed Oxide Inhibitor: Oxide inhibitor is pre-applied at the factory to help maintain a stable, corrosion-resistant electrical connection over the life of the installation.
