IPC Introduction

Insulation Piercing Connector is used for all AB cable systems (messenger wire and self-supporting systems) that accept a tap connection. This connection further distributes a line in street lighting and domestic utility connections. The design makes it possible to entirely seal the connection against water penetration, making it a waterproof connector.

These connectors form a semi-permanent metal-to-metal connection between the wire conductor and the insulation piercing connector. Several factors like contact type, connection method and tip design of connectors influence their performance and dependability.
