Blackburn XT22P – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What conductor sizes does the Blackburn XT22P tee-tap clamp accept on the run and the tap?
The XT22P takes 250 to 500 kcmil on the main run and 4/0 stranded on the tap. It is a two-conductor connector with one secondary (tap) port, so one run cable in, one tap out.
2) Can I use the Blackburn XT22P tee-tap on aluminum cable, or copper only?
Copper only. The XT22P is a copper-body tee-tap, cast from copper alloy with silicon bronze bolts and tin plated. For an aluminum or dual-rated run you need a connector marked AL9CU, not this one.
3) What voltage class is the Blackburn XT22P tee-tap clamp rated for?
35 kV. That puts it in medium-voltage service (shielded MV cable taps, pad-mount and switchgear work), not just 600 V branch circuits.
4) Does the Blackburn XT22P come insulated or do I have to cover it myself?
It ships bare, with no enclosure or cover. On a 35 kV tap you have to insulate it in the field, so budget for tape, a re-enterable cover, or a shrink kit on top of the clamp itself.
5) Is the XT22P a compression connector or does it bolt on?
Mechanical, not compression. The XT22P clamps onto the conductors with silicon bronze bolts, so a wrench sets it, no hydraulic crimper or die set needed. That also means you can take it apart and re-enter the tap later, which a compressed sleeve will not allow.
6) What is the exact part number and outside diameter on the Blackburn tee-tap for a 4/0 tap off a 500 kcmil run?
Blackburn model XT22P, MPN XT22P. Outside diameter is listed at 3/8 in, which matters when you are fitting it inside a taped splice or a cover kit with limited clearance.
