Overview

The nVent DGT2 (SKU: DGT2) is a heavy-duty C-tap connector constructed from polished copper, designed for high-strength electrical splices and taps. This connector is engineered for solid and stranded copper Code conductors, specifically accommodating #2 AWG for both run and tap conductor sizes. This dual-application capability for #2 AWG conductors helps reduce inventory needs by allowing a single connector to serve multiple purposes. The nVent DGT2 is UL listed and CSA certified for use at 600V and a temperature rating of 90°C when crimped with specified Panduit or competitor tools and dies. Its robust copper construction ensures superior electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for demanding industrial and commercial electrical installations. The connector requires a heavy-duty crimping tool (not included) for secure and reliable termination. Dimensions are 0.75 inches (19.1mm) in width, 0.60 inches (15.3mm) in height, and 1.05 inches (26.7mm) in length. It is manufactured in the USA and comes in a standard package quantity of 10 units. This C-tap is ideal for tapping into unbroken continuous mains, acting as a wire joint, or a two-way splice.
  • The Heavy Duty C-Taps splice two stranded or solid connectors together
  • With respect to the tool being heavy duty, it requires a crimping tool (not included) to correctly tighten the C-Taps around the connectors
  • UL listed and CSA certified for 600V at 90°C.
  • Reduces inventory with a single connector for #2 AWG run and tap applications.
  • Requires a heavy-duty crimping tool (not included) for secure connections.
