Description
MORRIS Piercing Connector, Above Ground Insulated, 8 to 1/0 AWG Main, 10 to 2 AWG Tap Conductor, 1/2 in Bolt, 600 VAC, 80 in-lb Torque, 1-Port, 194 deg F, Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic, 3 in L x 2 in W x 3.7 in H
Features:
- Connector installs in just minutes saving many man hours on the job
- Eliminates wire stripping, connecting and taping of split bolts and adding inhibitor
- Above ground connector can be installed on energized circuits eliminating power shutdowns
- Overhead services both insulated and bare mains, above grade URD services, street lighting, non-tension splicing and tapping, insulated replacement for split bolts, tapping without cutting the main, gutter taps
- Double shear head bolt guarantees correct torque tightening every time, ensuring a quality connection and eliminating the possibility of hot spots, damaged wires or loose connections
- No cable stripping required, simply insert the jacketed cable into the entry port and tighten with a 1/2 in 6-point socket
- The bolt and all external parts of the connector are completely isolated from energized parts and the bolt is covered by the plastic shear head, the installer has no contact at any point with an energized part

- Corrosion-free connection is good for hot, cold, damp and salty connections
- Properly installed the connector seals water-tight, this is accomplished by a sealant tank, that during installation is compressed and forces sealant out to protect the connection from oxygen and water
- Copper teeth are tin plated, shell is high strength UV-resistant thermoplastic insulating material, steel bolts are galvanized
- The connector bodies are made from high strength fiber reinforced thermoplastic and galvanized steel bolts
- Red turbo spacer allows tap side to remain open while you hand tighten the above ground connector on the main wire
- Blue rubber insert recreates insulation when used on bare wire and used to avoid any damage on neutral messenger
- 8 to 1/0 AWG main range, 10 to 2 AWG tap range
