Chatsworth 40163-054 C-type Compression TAP
Overview
The Chatsworth 40163-054 is a C-type compression tap designed for reliable electrical connections in demanding environments. It specifically accommodates #2 stranded conductors for both the run and tap sides, ensuring a secure and low-resistance pathway for power or signal transmission. This component is critical for maintaining the integrity of surveillance system power distribution or grounding applications where conductor size and type are specified.
Compatibility
This compression tap is engineered for use with #2 AWG stranded copper conductors for the run and #2 AWG stranded copper conductors for the tap. It is suitable for applications requiring a secure connection point for these specific conductor sizes, commonly found in power distribution panels, grounding systems, or complex wiring runs within telecommunications and surveillance infrastructure.
Installation Notes
Installation requires a compatible C-type compression tool and dies to properly crimp the tap onto the run conductor. Ensure the conductors are clean and free of debris before insertion. Proper torque and crimp depth are essential for long-term reliability and to prevent signal degradation or power loss. Consult the tool manufacturer's specifications for correct die selection and crimping procedures for #2 AWG stranded conductors.
