The Insulation Piercing Connector (IPC) is used for connecting an insulated conductor with a branch conductor without removing the insulation of the conductor. The application is mainly for insulated Aerial bunched cables. Each connector is in two halves, interconnected with a bolt having a shear head top. The shear head of the bolt shears off at predetermined torque. IPC of this design is when both the main & tap conductors are tightened simultaneous whereby the teeth of the contact plates penetrate the insulation and establish a contact.
