Color-Keyed 54755 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What voltage can I use a Color Keyed large C-Tap on?
Rated 600V, which covers standard commercial and industrial distribution work: panel feeders, service entrance taps, and branch tapping at 120/208, 277/480 and similar systems. It is not a medium-voltage connector, so anything above 600V needs a different product.
2) Is the Color Keyed C-Tap UL listed for electrical inspection?
Yes, it carries UL file E9809 under the Color Keyed / Blackburn brand label, so it can be used where inspectors require a listed compression tap connector.
3) What sizes do the large Color Keyed C-Taps come in?
Three large-size bodies are offered, identified by their crimped dimensions: part 54755 at 1-5/16 x 3/4 x 17/32 inches, 54760 at 1-7/16 x 3/4 x 19/32 inches, and 54765 at 1-11/16 x 1 x 4/64 inches. Because a C-Tap is color keyed to a specific run and tap conductor combination, order by the part number that matches the conductor pair you are joining rather than by body size alone.
4) Do I have to cut the main run to install a C-Tap connector?
No. The C-Tap body wraps the main conductor and the tap conductor together and is crimped in place, so the run stays continuous and uncut. That is the practical advantage over a split bolt or a pigtail splice on a live feeder that you do not want to interrupt.
5) C-Tap or split bolt, which should I use for tapping a feeder?
Both do the same job, but they cost you differently. A split bolt is mechanical, needs torquing and taping, and ties up more inventory in sizes and insulating covers. The Color Keyed C-Tap is a crimp connector, and the manufacturer positions it as more economical than other taps and split bolts in purchase cost, inventory, and installation time. The tradeoff is tooling: a C-Tap needs the matching compression tool and die, where a split bolt needs only a wrench. If you make taps regularly, the crimped C-Tap is faster per connection.
6) Does the Color Keyed C-Tap come insulated or do I need to tape it?
The body is supplied with a plain surface finish, meaning bare copper with no insulating cover. Any insulation over the finished tap, tape or a separate insulating cover, has to be supplied separately per your installation requirements.
7) Why is it called Color Keyed, and does the color affect which tool die I use?
Color Keyed is the Blackburn system where each connector carries a color marking that identifies the die and crimp the connector requires, so an installer matches connector color to tool die rather than reading charts in the field. Crimp the tap with the die the connector's color calls for; that is what keeps the connection within its UL E9809 listing.
8) Will these C-Taps work for tapping inside an electrical panel or at a service entrance?
Yes, those are the intended uses. Copper C-Taps at 600V are used for electrical panel connections, service entrance work, feeder circuit tapping, and retrofit or maintenance taps in commercial and industrial distribution. Confirm you have the room inside the enclosure for the crimped body and your insulating cover before committing to the large size.
