It accepts a run wire from 12 AWG solid or stranded up to 10 AWG stranded, with three wire entries that allow a tap connection to be made without cutting the run wire. Electricians and HVAC technicians use these connectors to add branch circuits or signal taps quickly during installation or service work. Each pack contains 50 connectors. Combined weight of the pack is approximately 0.38 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for residential and light commercial wiring scenarios where a branch tap must be made on an existing run wire. Common applications include thermostat wiring extensions, low-voltage control circuits, lighting branch taps, and similar signal or power distribution tasks. The IDC termination method pierces the wire insulation on installation, eliminating the need to strip conductors. The brown color coding helps identify the connector by wire gauge range on the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIDC termination — no wire stripping required, insulation displacement completes the connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree wire entries accommodate one run wire and one tap wire in a single connector body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with 12 AWG solid or stranded run wire and 10 AWG stranded run wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrown color coding identifies wire gauge range for quick selection in the field\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets Electrical IDC 902 standard for insulation displacement connectors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold in a pack of 50, MOQ of 1 pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eRated for use with 12 AWG solid or stranded wire and 10 AWG stranded wire per IDC 902 standards.

De-energize the circuit completely before making any splice or tap connection. Insert the run wire and tap wire into the designated wire entries and close the connector body fully to engage the IDC contacts. Do not use these connectors on circuits or wire gauges outside the rated range listed on the connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTermination Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTerminal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tap \/ Run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Compatible Wire Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 AWG stranded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Compatible Wire Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 AWG solid or stranded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Wire Entries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards Met\u003c\/strong\u003e: Electrical IDC 902\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50 connectors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0076 pounds per connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 39121400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7100177012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"3M","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542079701298,"sku":"7100177012","price":80.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/79470114cbd4c95b336c7cdea080fab2.jpg?v=1785891409","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/3m-7100177012-quick-splice-tap-connector-brown-50-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
