Overview

The Polaris IPLD2-5C 5-Port Dual-Sided Connector provides the simplest solution for forming a secure connection between up to three conductors in applications including cable trays, panel boards, ducts, raceways or troughs. Sized for 2 AWG - 14 AWG wires and rated for 600V, this pre-insulated connector comes pre-loaded with an oxide inhibitor and installs faster than traditional uninsulated connector options using just a hex key and torque wrench. The clear body lets installers see their work for optimal conductor placement and is ergonomically molded to offer a comfortable grip, in addition to being resistant to abrasion and chemicals All-in-one design saves time and supplies on each job by eliminating the need for cover and taping; simply brush the conductors clean, strip back their insulation, insert one conductor into each port and secure the covered pressure screws. The IPLD2-5C connector is rated for a 90 degrees Celsius operating temperature and dual rated for use with copper and/or aluminum cables, up to max AMP ratings of 130 and 100 respectively. Polaris pre-insulated connectors are available in a range of port numbers and configurations to fit the needs of any job, including UL-listed parallel configurations. Polaris: the original pre-insulated connector and still the brand most asked for by name.
  • Clear Exterior: Vision Tap transparent design lets users see their work to ensure ideal conductor placement and the most secure connection
  • Dual-Sided Wire Entry: Form secure connections between 5 conductors quickly using the double-side entry ports sized for wires between 2 AWG and 14 AWG
  • Ergonomic Design: Rounded corners and a smooth exterior finish over the abrasion-resistant plastisol insulation make Polaris connectors comfortable to grip
  • Pre-filled Oxide Inhibitor: All 5 dual-sided (DSE) entry ports are covered by removable plugs and pre-filled with an oxide inhibitor gel to protect against corrosion, debris or moisture
  • Professional Performance: The durable layer of insulation on each Polaris connector is UV, abrasion and chemical-resistant for reliable performance
