Burndy UNITAP™ Clear Insulated 2-Port MultiTap Connector, Al/Cu Rated

This Burndy connector is part of the UNITAP™ family of clear plastisol covered multiple tap connectors, engineered as a 2-port, opposite-side entry connector for reliable run/tap conductor connections in commercial and industrial electrical systems. The UNITAP™ family is available with a maximum conductor size of either 250 kcmil or 600 kcmil, and every connector in the line is Al/Cu rated for use with both aluminum and copper conductors, giving electricians flexibility when mixing conductor types on the same run. The clear plastisol insulation allows visual inspection of the conductor connection point while still maintaining full insulation coverage over the tap, making this connector family a practical, code-conscious choice for professional electrical installations where verification of a proper connection matters.

Key Features

  • Conductor Size Options: Available with a maximum conductor size of 250 kcmil or 600 kcmil, covering a broad span of run and tap sizes across the family.
  • Clear Plastisol Covering: Transparent insulation lets installers visually verify proper conductor seating and connection integrity while the tap stays fully insulated.
  • 2-Port, Opposite-Side Entry: Dual-port body with conductors entering from opposite sides, simplifying routing in run/tap wiring layouts and panel terminations.
  • Al/Cu Rated: Listed for use with both aluminum and copper conductors, adding flexibility when a job mixes conductor materials.
  • Multi Tap Connector Type: Purpose-built as a run/tap connector for splicing and tapping conductors within distribution and feeder wiring.
  • UNITAP™ Series: Part of Burndy's established UNITAP™ line of mechanical multiple tap connectors used across commercial and industrial projects.

Burndy BITO250 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I use the Burndy UNITAP 2-port connector with aluminum conductors, or copper only?
Both. The UNITAP 2-port multitap connector is Al/Cu rated, so aluminum and copper conductors can be landed in it, including a job that mixes the two on the same run. The stranded size range is 4 AWG through 600 kcmil for aluminum and 4 AWG through 600 kcmil for copper.
2) What is the difference between Burndy BITO250 and BITO600?
Maximum conductor size is the only difference you specify. BITO250 takes conductors up to 250 kcmil; BITO600 goes up to 600 kcmil. Both are 2-port opposite-side entry UNITAP bodies with the clear plastisol cover and both are Al/Cu rated. Pick the one that covers your largest conductor, normally the run.
3) What is the smallest wire the Burndy UNITAP 2-port connector will accept?
4 AWG is the bottom of the range on both the aluminum and copper stranded ratings, so a #4 tap is the smallest conductor this connector is rated to hold. Anything smaller than 4 AWG needs a different connector.
4) Do the two conductors enter from the same end on this Burndy multitap connector?
No. It is a 2-port opposite-side entry body, meaning the run enters one side and the tap enters the other. That layout keeps conductors pulling in opposite directions, which is what you want for a straight run/tap in a crowded panel or gutter rather than doubling both cables back on themselves.
5) Is this a mechanical connector or do I need a crimp tool for it?
The UNITAP line is a mechanical multiple tap connector, so conductors are set with the connector's own screws rather than compressed with a crimper. No dies or hydraulic tool are involved in landing the run and tap.
6) Can I use a Burndy UNITAP 2-port connector to tap a feeder inside a panelboard?
That is one of its intended uses. It is built as a run/tap connector for splicing and tapping conductors in distribution and feeder wiring, including panelboard, switchgear, and distribution equipment terminations in commercial and industrial systems. Size the body to your largest conductor: 250 kcmil max or 600 kcmil max.
7) I need to tap more than one conductor off a run. Will a 2-port UNITAP work?
No. A 2-port body has one run port and one tap port, so it handles a single tap. Two taps off the same run means either a UNITAP with more ports or a second connector on the run conductor.
8) Why is the insulation on the Burndy UNITAP connector clear instead of black?
The cover is clear plastisol so the conductor ends stay visible after the connector is made up. You can see whether the strands are fully seated in the port without cutting the insulation back, and the tap is still fully covered. That matters on an inspection where somebody wants to verify the connection point.
