“Better Products by Design”
Connector Products Inc produces innovative, high-quality products for the electrical utilityindustry. “Better products by design” is our mission and a philosophy that we live by asa trusted industry supplier.
Experience
Since 1980 Connector Products Inc has provided electrical connectors for major powerutility transmission and distribution systems across the United States and throughoutthe world. Our company founder developed the wedge style connector over forty yearsago and has contributed to its progress over time. Today, Connector Products offers theonly true wedge style bolted connector on the market. The CPI tap connector’s ability tobe installed or removed without specialized tooling and capability of accommodating awide range of wire sizes is what makes this product the first choice for some of thelargest utility companies across the country.
In addition to the industry proven wedge style tap connector, CPI also offers a full line ofgrounding grid connectors, fiber optic OPGW connectors, hotline tap connectors andthird rail mass transit connectors.
Connector Products understands the importance of producing a reliable product thatenergy subscribers across the country can count on. Our track record speaks for itself!
Highlights
Supplied tap connectors and third rail running and hot line rail connectors throughoutFlorida after the destruction caused by hurricane Andrew.
Supplied wedge style tap connectors to rebuild electrical distribution system after the1998 ice storm upon immediate demand. Connector Products was able to supply 10,000connectors in a nine day period, quicker than any other supplier or manufacturer.
Supplied material for US forces going into Haiti. CPI provided electrical connectors toreestablish power to government buildings.
Over the last twenty years CPI has played an instrumental role in rebuilding Electricaldistribution systems after every major hurricane on the East Coast.
The CPI tap connector’sability to be installed or
removed with outspecialized tooling and
capability ofaccommodating a wide
range of wire sizes iswhat makes this product
the first choice…

The conductors listed below have a high ratio of mechanical strength to current carrying capacity. They are used largely for overhead ground wires or for speciallong span construction such as river crossings. Generally speaking, they are of interest where mechanical requirements are of primary importance. Theseconductors are in every respect standard types of ACSR.
