Blackburn CTP25020N – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What conductor sizes does the Blackburn CTP25020N C-tap accept on the main and the tap?
The CTP25020N takes a main run of 3/0 through 250 kcmil and a tap of 6 AWG through 2/0, copper to copper. Both conductors have to fall in those ranges for the crimp to hold; a 4/0 tap or a 300 kcmil main is outside the die range for this connector.
2) Can I use this Blackburn C-tap on aluminum conductors?
No. The CTP25020N is a copper-bodied compression connector rated for copper conductors only. For aluminum or an aluminum-to-copper transition you need a connector specifically listed for AL9CU service, not this one.
3) Is the Blackburn CTP25020N a bolted connector or does it need to be crimped?
It is compression only. The C-tap is a wire or cable compression splice, installed with a hydraulic or battery crimp tool and the matching die, then typically covered with insulating tape or a molded cover. There is no bolt or set screw, so it cannot be re-opened or re-tensioned once crimped.
4) Does the Blackburn CTP25020N come insulated or do I have to cover it?
It ships as a bare copper C-tap. No cover, tape, or insulating boot is included, so on any application above ground where the splice needs insulation, order the covering separately.
5) What is the exact part number to order this 3/0-250 main C-tap?
Blackburn CTP25020N. That single manufacturer part number covers the copper C-tap with the 3/0 to 250 kcmil main range and the 6 AWG to 2/0 tap range.
6) Is the Blackburn CTP25020N sold individually or in a box?
Each. The selling unit is one connector, so on a job that taps twenty risers you order twenty. Handy when you are only making a couple of taps rather than buying a full carton.
7) Where is the Blackburn CTP25020N C-tap made?
It is manufactured in the United States, which matters on federal, military, and Buy American funded projects where domestic sourcing has to be documented for grounding components.
