Inline Pigtail Splice

dpb · 2018-11-06T13:31:57+00:00

Way back when put in the feedlot and wired the waterers for the heaters, Dad used a crimp-on connector that went around (stripped section ~1" long) 4 GA AL feed and allowed a #14 to #10 pigtail to be joined for the individual boxes without having to cut the main feeder. I'm needing to add a new connection and can't find anything similar nor think of exactly what to call it to search...anybody got a clue or lead to one? I'd really like to not have to insert a splice...

The conductors should be strapped to each other for some length beyond the tap to take the strain off the tap device.

You mean "salesman", puffery and buffoon-ism? No way...
