Blackburn CF4010-1P – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What conductor sizes does the Blackburn CF4010-1P H-tap connector cover?
The CF4010-1P is a copper H-type compression tap sized for 2, 1, and 1/0 AWG conductors. That range is the run and tap combination the connector is die-stamped for, so conductors outside 2 through 1/0 need a different catalog number in the CF series.
2) Is the CF4010-1P copper only, or can I use it on aluminum conductors?
Copper only. The CF4010-1P body is copper and it is a CU-rated tap, so aluminum or ACSR runs call for an aluminum-bodied or dual-rated connector instead.
3) Will the CF4010-1P work for a 1/0 run with a smaller tap conductor?
Yes, within its range. The connector is listed for 2, 1, and 1/0, so a 1/0 run with a 1 or 2 AWG copper tap falls inside what it is built to take. A tap smaller than 2 AWG or a run larger than 1/0 is outside this number.
4) Do I need a crimping tool for a Blackburn H-tap, or can it be tightened with a wrench?
It is a compression connector, not a mechanical set-screw lug, so it has to be crimped with a hydraulic or battery compression tool using the correct die. There are no bolts or screws to torque on an H-tap; the crimp is what makes the connection.
5) What is an H-tap connector actually used for on a job?
An H-tap joins a tap conductor to a continuous run without cutting the run. The run lays in one channel of the H, the tap in the other, and a single compression crimp closes both. Electricians use them for grounding grid taps, service tap connections, and branching feeders where a through-run has to stay intact. The CF4010-1P handles that job on copper 2, 1, and 1/0 conductors.
6) Is the CF4010-1P sold individually or in a box of connectors?
Sold each, so the quantity you order is the number of taps you get. Count one per splice point plus spares, since a mis-crimped compression tap cannot be reused.
7) Where is the Blackburn CF4010-1P made, and what part number do I order by?
Order by manufacturer part number CF4010-1P, Blackburn brand. Country of origin is Mexico. The UPC on the each is 783786828654 if your purchasing system matches on barcode.
