What are the applications of insulated piercing connectors?

As the name suggests, insulated piercing connectors complete the connections from the main wires to the subsidiary wires. One common application is on the street lights where they connect the lamp wire to the main live conductor.

How to install an insulated piercing connector?

For proper insulation, you will need a spanner. You should also be cautious with the live wire when installing this transmission line accessory.

Start by identifying the correct cable from the cable and isolate it using a phase separator. Insert the selected cable into the piercing tap of the clamp. This tap is on the main side of the clamp.

Loosen the shear nut to properly accommodate the cable in the tap. You can then tighten the nut using a spanner until the top hex shears off.
