Five-port insulated multitap connector

The Polaris nsi IPLD350-5B is an insulated multitap connector with five ports for joining aluminum or copper conductors. It accepts stranded copper wire from 6 AWG up to 350 kcmil and is rated for 600 V at a maximum operating temperature of 194 Degrees F. The body is aluminum with a black plastisol finish and insulation.

Upgrades from single-port lugs

This connector replaces individual lugs or split bolts when multiple conductors must be joined in one location. The jump is worth it when a single junction point reduces clutter and installation time compared with separate connections. Each port uses a 5/16 in hex drive for tightening.

Verify wire size and port count

Confirm that every conductor falls within the 6 AWG to 350 kcmil range and that exactly five ports are needed for the circuit. Check that the 5.62 in overall length fits the available space in the enclosure or trough. Ensure the 600 V rating matches the system voltage and that cULus and UL 486A listings satisfy local code requirements.

Questions about this item

What size hex driver fits the 5/16 in set screws on the five-port connector?

A 5/16 in hex driver or socket engages the set screws on each of the five ports; turn each screw until the conductor is clamped firmly without stripping the aluminum threads.

What strip length should be used when inserting 350 kcmil copper conductors into the ports?

Strip the insulation to the depth of the port bore so the bare conductor seats fully against the internal stop; the plastisol body lets you verify insertion visually before tightening each screw.

How should the plastisol-insulated body be inspected after prolonged service at 194 Degrees F?

Check the black plastisol cover for cracking, hardening or discoloration; if the insulation shows heat damage, replace the connector to maintain the 600 V rating and cULus listing.
