Blackburn BC22 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes does the Blackburn BC22 C-tap take on the run and the tap?
The BC22 is a 2 AWG to 2 AWG copper C-tap, run and tap both. Blackburn's designation reads No2-No2 / No2-No2, so it joins a 2 AWG main conductor to a 2 AWG tap. Anything larger or smaller on either leg needs a different C-tap size.
2) Is the BC22 a bolted connector or does it need a crimp tool?
It is a compression C-crimp, not a mechanical bolted lug. You install it with a hydraulic or battery crimp tool and the correct die for a 2 AWG C-tap, then tape or insulate the connection. There is no bolt or setscrew on it.
3) Can I use a Blackburn BC22 C-tap on aluminum conductors?
No. The BC22 is a copper connector intended for copper conductors. For aluminum or a copper to aluminum transition you need a connector rated for that combination, not this one.
4) I have an old order for a Blackburn BC22 under a different number. Is 7TAA269830R0002 the same part?
Yes. 7TAA269830R0002 is the current replacement product identifier for the BC22 copper C-tap, so an order placed against either designation lands on the same 2 AWG to 2 AWG connector.
5) Is the Blackburn BC22 made in the USA for a Buy American job?
Country of origin on the BC22 C-tap is the United States, which is the line procurement asks for on federally funded and institutional work.
6) Is the BC22 sold individually or in a bag of connectors?
Pricing and packaging are per piece, sold each, so order one connector per splice you have to make. Crimp taps are single-use, so count in the ones you will scrap setting up dies.
7) Does the BC22 C-tap come insulated?
No, it is a bare copper compression tap. The crimped joint has to be insulated in the field, typically with tape, heat shrink, or a molded cover sized for a 2 AWG C-tap, unless it is a grounding connection where bare is acceptable.
