Burndy Unitap Insulated Multi-Tap Connector, Run/Tap Style

The Burndy Unitap™ insulated multi-tap connector is engineered for reliable run-and-tap connections in commercial and industrial electrical systems. This mechanical Run/Tap style connector family is available in double-sided (2-side) entry configurations of 3-Port, accepting #10 AWG through 250 kcmil conductors, and 4-Port, accepting #4 AWG through 600 kcmil conductors, covering stranded copper and aluminum conductors across the range. Each connector features an aluminum body with UV rated black insulation and a pre-installed oxide inhibitor to help reduce corrosion at the conductor interface and speed field installation.

Key Features

  • Conductor Range: Family spans #10 AWG - 250 kcmil (3-Port) up to #4 AWG - 600 kcmil (4-Port) for stranded copper and aluminum conductors.
  • Double-Sided, Multi-Port Design: Two-side (2-side) entry with either 3 or 4 ports allows multiple tap conductors to be landed from a single run connector body.
  • Aluminum Construction: Aluminum multiple tap connector body provides a durable base for mechanical run-and-tap connections.
  • Run/Tap Connector Type: A mechanical connector built specifically for tapping branch conductors off a continuous run conductor.
  • Insulated, UV Rated Black: Insulated connector body with UV rated black covering suited to indoor or outdoor exposure.

Burndy 1PLD2503 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Burndy Unitap multi-tap connector do I need for a 600 kcmil feeder tap?
Go with the 4-port version, Burndy part 1PLD6004, which accepts #4 AWG through 600 kcmil. The 3-port version (1PLD2503) tops out at 250 kcmil and starts at #10 AWG, so a 600 kcmil run conductor won't land in it. Both take stranded copper or aluminum across their stated range.
2) Can the Burndy Unitap connector be used on both copper and aluminum conductors?
Yes, it's rated for stranded copper and stranded aluminum across the same size range, 10 AWG to 250 kcmil on the 3-port body and 4 AWG to 600 kcmil on the 4-port. The aluminum connector body ships with the oxide inhibitor already installed, which is what you want when you're landing aluminum conductors.
3) How many tap conductors can I land off one Burndy Unitap run/tap connector?
Ports are the limit: three on the 1PLD2503 and four on the 1PLD6004. Both are double-sided (2-side entry) bodies, so conductors come in from either side, and each port holds one conductor within the connector's size range. If you need more taps than that off one run, you need a second connector or a larger multi-tap block.
4) Will a #10 AWG tap wire hold in the Burndy Unitap connector?
Only in the 3-port body. #10 AWG is the smallest stranded conductor the 3-port 1PLD2503 accepts. The 4-port version starts at #4 AWG, so #10 is below its range and will not be properly captured.
5) Is this Unitap connector OK to install outdoors or in a wet location?
The insulation is UV rated black covering, which is what makes it suitable for outdoor and sun-exposed installs as well as indoor work. It's a mechanical insulated multi-tap connector, so no separate boot or tape-up is needed over the body.
6) Should I use a mechanical multi-tap connector like the Unitap or a compression tap?
A Unitap mechanical run/tap is the choice when you want to land taps with a wrench instead of a hydraulic crimper, and when you may need to re-terminate later. It's built for tapping branch conductors off a continuous run conductor in panelboard, switchgear, service entrance and feeder work. Compression connectors are the alternative where a permanent, non-reenterable joint is specified.
7) Do I need to add joint compound before landing aluminum in the Unitap?
No. Oxide inhibitor is factory pre-installed in the ports, so you strip, insert, and torque. That saves the step of brushing and buttering aluminum conductors on site and keeps the inhibitor in place from the factory to the connection.
8) Can I use the Unitap connector for a grounding and bonding tap?
Yes, run-and-tap grounding and bonding applications are among its listed uses, alongside service entrance and feeder taps and panelboard or switchgear wiring. Size the body to your grounding conductor: 3-port for 10 AWG through 250 kcmil, 4-port for 4 AWG through 600 kcmil.
9) Where can I get the Burndy Unitap spec sheet for a submittal?
Burndy publishes a spec sheet for the Unitap 1PLD2503 at https://hubbellcdn.com/specsheet/BRDY-1PLD2503-SPEC-EN.pdf. That covers the 3-port, 10 AWG to 250 kcmil insulated run/tap body if you need the manufacturer document for a submittal package.
