Blackburn 31207 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes does the Blackburn 31207 ground bus tap take?
The Blackburn 31207 Locktite ground bus tap covers a range of 8 through 4 conductors, which is what the "8-4" in the part name refers to. It is sold individually, one connector per order, so count one per tap point when you build the order for a panel or ground bar job.
2) Is the Blackburn 31207 tap copper or aluminum, and can I use it on an aluminum conductor?
It is a copper-bodied connector, so use it on copper conductors. If your run is aluminum or you have a mixed copper-to-aluminum termination, you want a dual-rated AL9CU connector instead, not this one.
3) Will the Blackburn 31207 work for a #6 equipment grounding conductor?
Yes, a 6 AWG conductor falls inside the 8 through 4 range this tap is built for. A 3 AWG or larger conductor is outside that range, so step up to a larger Blackburn bus tap for those.
4) What is a ground bus tap connector actually used for on a panel?
A bus tap like the Blackburn 31207 lets you land a grounding or bonding conductor onto an existing bus bar or ground bar rather than running it back to a lug position of its own. It is the piece electricians reach for when a ground bar is full or when equipment grounds have to be added to a panel after the fact. The 31207 is a copper Locktite-style tap for 8 through 4 conductors.
5) I need to order Blackburn 31207 by part number for a submittal, what do I reference?
Order it as Blackburn 31207. That is the manufacturer part number as well as the model, described as a Locktite copper ground bus tap, 8-4. Country of origin on the item is Mexico, which matters if your project has a origin-disclosure requirement on the submittal package.
