  • Patent number: 11309642
    Abstract: A tap connector that includes a tap body and an insulation piercing assembly or module is provided. The insulation piercing assembly is secured to the tap body and movable relative to the tap body. The insulation piercing assembly includes a conductive body, at least two sets of electrically conductive insulation piercing teeth secured to the conductive body and a non-conductive cap or coating covering the teeth. When the teeth pierce the non-conductive caps or coating exposing the teeth, the teeth can pierce insulation surrounding the main and tap conductors creating an electrically conductive path between the main conductor and the tap conductor.
