This category covers self-contained interconnectors employing pressure cable connectors, insulation displacement or insulation piercing connectors for splicing or tapping nonmetallic (NM) sheathed cable.

These interconnectors are intended for installation in accordance with Section 336.21 and Articles 545, 550 and 551 of NFPA 70, ‘‘National Electrical Code.’’

These devices have been evaluated for equivalency to Type NM cable in insulation and temperature rise, and for capability to withstand fault currents, vibration and mechanical shock that may occur during transport of the units in which they are used.
