Wengart nsulated Inline Splice Connector QMS-D2/0-1, 2/0-6 AWG Wire Range, 600V Dual Rated for Copper and Aluminum, Pre-Filled with Oxide Inhibitor, UL Listed, Black

QMS-D2/0-1 Insulated Inline Wire Splice Component The QMS-D2/0-1 is a technical component designed for splicing or tapping power cables. Utilizing a high-dielectric plastisol coating, this connector is designed for 600V applications, providing a functional alternative to manual taping in varied environmental conditions. Technical Specifications:Model: QMS-D2/0-1Wire Range: 2/0 AWG to 6 AWG (Stranded)Required Strip Length: 32.8 mmTorque (2/0 AWG): 170 in-lbs (19.2 N.m)Fastener: 7/32" Allen Hex ScrewCertification: UL Listed and CSA CertifiedInstallation Orientation & FAQQ: What is the recommended wire preparation for this connector? A: For the QMS-D2/0-1, the specified wire strip length is 32.8 mm. This measurement allows the conductor to be fully seated within the connector housing without exposing bare wire.Q: How is the connection secured? A: Securement is achieved via a 7/32" Allen hex screw. Please refer to the torque specifications for your specific wire gauge (ranging from 110 to 170 in-lbs) to maintain the mechanical integrity of the splice.Q: Is additional oxide inhibitor required? A: Each port comes pre-filled with inhibitor. For standard installations, additional compound is generally not required unless specified by local electrical codes for specific conductor types.

• Versatile Wire Range (2/0-6 AWG): Engineered for secondary electrical distribution, the QMS-D2/0-1 accommodates stranded copper or aluminum conductors from 2/0 down to 6 AWG. This dual-rated connector is a functional solution for service entrance and equipment grounding in residential and commercial projects.
• Pre-Filled with Oxide Inhibitor: Each entry port is pre-loaded with a professional-grade oxide inhibiting compound. This feature manages the contact resistance for aluminum-to-copper or aluminum-to-aluminum joints, which is a standard technical requirement for high-load connections.
• Precise Installation Specifications: For a secure and compliant connection, this model requires a specific wire strip length of 32.8 mm. Following these precise measurements helps maintain the dielectric integrity of the splice within junction boxes or wireways.
• Defined Torque Requirements: To support the mechanical stability of the connection, the QMS-D2/0-1 supports varied torque applications based on wire size, ranging from 110 in-lbs (12.4 N.m) for 6 AWG up to 170 in-lbs (19.2 N.m) for 2/0 AWG. (Note: Requires a 7/32" Allen hex wrench).
• Extreme Weather & High Dielectric Strength: Encased in a rugged black plastisol coating rated for 600V and 90°C (194°F). This connector is engineered to remain resilient in cold temperatures down to -45°C (-49°F), helping to avoid insulation cracking in harsh outdoor environments.
