Blackburn AMTD250103 3-hole insulated multitap connector 3.00 in

Three-Port Insulated Multitap

The Blackburn AMTD250103 is a three-hole insulated multitap connector designed for joining aluminium, copper or copper-clad aluminium conductors. It accepts stranded copper wire from 10 AWG up to 250 kcmil across three ports. The T-shaped body allows cables to enter from both sides for straightforward in-line or branching splices. Electrical contractors and panel builders use it for service taps and feeder distribution up to 600 volts.

Aluminium Body With PVC Insulation

The connector body is machined from aluminium and coated with black PVC insulation that covers the barrel and port entries. Each port is secured by a 5/16 inch hex set screw, so a standard hex driver or wrench tightens the connection without specialised tooling. The insulation eliminates the need for separate taping in most indoor and covered outdoor locations. CSA 6591 and UL E9809 listings confirm compliance with North American safety standards for wire connectors.

Rated For 194 °F At 600 Volts

Normal operation stays within a maximum temperature of 194 degrees Fahrenheit while carrying rated current at up to 600 volts. The aluminium body conducts heat away from the conductor interface, and the PVC jacket remains stable across the specified thermal range. No moving parts or active cooling are involved, so the connector runs silently and draws no power of its own. Installers should verify that the connected conductors and overcurrent protection match the 600-volt, 250 kcmil limits.
