Types Of Insulation Piercing Connectors(IPC)

Insulation Piercing Connectors (IPC) is used for making Tee/Tap-off/Service connectors to an ABC
Line. Insulation Piercing Connectors are designed to make a connection between the uncut main
conductor and a branch cable conductor without having to strip either cable to expose the conductor.
Instead, the tightening action of the IPC will first pierce the Insulation, and then make good electrical
contact between the main end and branch conductor while simultaneously insulating and sealing the
connection.
The standard size ranges for various applications are given below:

CONSTRUCTIONAL FEATURES OF INSULATION PIERCING CONNECTORS


The following features of Insulation piercing bare connectors are to be met for the qualification
criteria
1. The connector bodies shall be made entirely of mechanical and weather resistant plastic
insulation material made of weather & UV resistant reinforced polymer and no metallic part
outside the housing is acceptable except for the tightening bolt or nuts.
2. Any metallic part that is exposed must not be capable of carrying a potential during or after
connector installation.
3. Screws or nuts assigned for fitting with IPC must be fitted with torque limiting shear heads to
prevent over tightening or under tightening While the min & max torque values are to be
specified by Manufacturer, these should not exceed 20 N mtr for IPC for main conductor < 95 sq
mm and 30 N mtr for main conductor >95 but < 150 sq mm.
4. The IPC must perform piercing of Tap insulated conductor connection on Main cable
simultaneously using single bolt for tightening as multiple bolts do not ensure even tightening.
Design of connector needs to avoid the stripping of insulated tap conductor and make the
connection by piercing the insulation.
5. The shear bolt/nut shall be suitable for tightening with a hexagonal spanner of 13 mm.
6. The contract blade of the connector is made of tinned copper/aluminum alloy.
7. The IPC shall be water proof and the water proof and the water tightness shall be ensured by
appropriate elastomer materials and not by grease gel or paste alone. Grease can be applied to
protect the contact blade alone and shall not be visible of the outer surface of the connector.
Connector should not be dipped in grease.
8. Each IPBC should be provided with a cap to seal the cut end of the insulated Branch cable. It
should be of a design that once the connector id fitted, it shall not be possible to remove the cap
without dismantling the connector.
9. Design of IPBC should be such as to not cause damage to insulation of adjacent conductors due
to vibration and relative movement during service.
10. All the metallic parts of the connector should be corrosion resistant and there should not be any
appreciable change in contact resistance & temperature after overloads & load cycling and
should be confirm to the long duration tests specified in this standard.
