Burndy BIBD2/02 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can a Burndy BIB insulated tap connector be used on both aluminum and copper conductors?
Yes. The Burndy BIB series aluminum tap connector is dual rated: aluminum 8 AWG through 250 kcmil and copper 10 AWG through 250 kcmil, for an overall range of 10 AWG to 250 kcmil. The body is unplated aluminum, so when you land copper in it you are making an aluminum-to-copper connection under the screw, which is what the dual rating covers.
2) Can I direct bury a Burndy BIB insulated tap connector or put it in a wet underground pull box?
No. The Burndy BIB plastisol insulated tap connector is not rated for direct burial. The clear plastisol cover is an insulating boot, not a moisture seal. For underground or submerged splices you need a connector specifically listed for direct burial or a sealed/gel-filled enclosure. Keep the BIB in panels, gutters, switchgear, and dry above-ground junction applications.
3) How do I pick the right port count on a Burndy BIB tap connector?
Count every conductor that lands in the block, the feeder in plus each tap out, because each port takes one conductor under its own screw. Burndy BIB blocks are ordered by wire range and port count together: 14 to 2/0 AWG in 2-port (BIBD2/02) and 3-port (BIBD2/03); 250 MCM in 3-port (BIBS2503), 4-port (BIBD2504), and 6-port (BIBD250-6); 350 MCM in 6-port (BIBD3506); and 600 MCM in 3-port (BIBS6003). Size the range to your largest conductor first, then the port count.
4) I need to split a 600 MCM feeder three ways. Which Burndy BIB do I order?
BIBS6003 is the 600 MCM, 3-port block in the BIB line, and it is the only one in the family sized for 600 MCM. If your largest conductor is 350 MCM instead, BIBD3506 gives you six ports at that range; at 250 MCM you have 3, 4, and 6-port choices. Do not try to force an oversized conductor into a 250 MCM port, the screw range will not hold it.
5) What voltage can a Burndy BIB tap connector be used at?
600V minimum rating, which covers the usual 120/208, 277/480, and 600V commercial and industrial systems. It is UL Listed and CSA Certified to UL468A-468B, the mechanical wire connector standards, so it holds up for inspection on code-compliant panel and feeder work.
6) Do I still need to tape or boot a Burndy BIB tap connector after I land the wires?
No separate taping is needed. The BIB ships with a clear plastisol insulating cover already on the block, and the point of the clear material is that you can see the conductors seated under the screws without pulling the insulation off. That makes it a fast block to inspect on a re-check or a punch walk.
7) Is the Burndy BIB block a 2-sided entry connector, and does that matter in a tight gutter?
It is 2-sided entry, meaning conductors can come in from either side rather than all from one face. In a crowded panel gutter or a shallow wireway that lets you bring the feeder in from one direction and run the taps out the other without forcing a hard bend radius on large conductors.
8) Will an aluminum tap block corrode if I use it in an unheated industrial space?
The body is unplated aluminum, which Burndy selected for conductivity and corrosion resistance in normal indoor commercial, industrial, and utility service. What it is not rated for is burial or a wet buried box. For a damp but above-ground location, a suitable NEMA enclosure around the block is the right approach.
9) Is the Burndy BIB tap connector RoHS compliant for a spec that requires it?
Yes, the BIB insulated tap block is RoHS compliant, and it carries UL Listing plus CSA Certification to UL468A-468B. Note it is UL Listed rather than UL Recognized, so it stands on its own in a field installation rather than only as a component inside another listed assembly.
