How to Order KUBE
®
Multi-Tap
• Choose your connectors. Note that connectors to be
mounted on a single Multi-Tap rod can be for different
wire sizes but must be of the same body size.
• Choose insulators of the appropriate body size for the
connectors. (One insulator required for each connector.)
• Choose a Multi-Tap rod that matches the body size of your
connectors and that has enough positions for the number
of connections you need.
