The connector accepts copper and aluminum conductors ranging from 4 AWG stranded up to 500 KCMIL stranded across 8 ports. The body is molded from high-dielectric-strength plastisol, eliminating the need for additional taping or external covers after termination. Wire entry ports are located on both sides of the connector, allowing access from either direction. Removable access plugs close unused entry ports, and removable plugs over the hex screws keep the assembly protected. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors are the primary installers of this device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IPLMD500-8 is suited for use in commercial and industrial power distribution panels, wireways, troughs, and junction points where multiple conductors must be joined or tapped in a single location. Mounting holes at each end of the connector allow for direct isolated mounting to a trough, panel, or wireway. The connector handles mixed copper and aluminum conductor combinations, making it useful in retrofit and new-construction scenarios where both conductor types are present in the same raceway or enclosure. It is rated for 90 degrees C temperature environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 ports accept conductors from 4 AWG stranded to 500 KCMIL stranded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDual side-entry design allows conductor access from either side of the connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlastisol insulation provides high dielectric strength, eliminating the need for taping or a separate cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRemovable access plugs seal unused entry ports and cover hex screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMounting holes at each end for direct isolated mounting to troughs, panels, or wireways\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAbrasion resistant, chemical resistant, and UV resistant construction; will not support combustion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with copper and aluminum stranded conductors from 4 AWG to 500 KCMIL.

De-energize and lock out the circuit before making any conductor connections. Use an appropriately sized hex key or torque tool for the set screws per the torque requirements listed on the product or manufacturer documentation. Ensure all unused entry ports are sealed with the provided access plugs before restoring power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 600 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Ports\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Entry\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-side entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Conductor Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 AWG stranded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Conductor Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500 KCMIL stranded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConductor Material Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper and aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 degrees C\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plastisol\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11.23 inches L x 2.81 inches W x 3.03 inches H\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstructional Features\u003c\/strong\u003e: Abrasion resistant, chemical resistant, UV resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApproval\u003c\/strong\u003e: UL (Canada and US)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: POLARIS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: IPLMD500-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"POLARIS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51284074201394,"sku":"IPLMD500-8","price":250.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309279565.jpg?v=1781067885","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/polaris-iplmd500-8-multi-cable-tap-connector-8-port-600v","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
