holes and tighten into the surface behind the tap.

Connect Taps

After you have completed mounting your taps, you need to connect the taps.
Choose the tap connection procedure that best suits your installation requirements.

Connect Taps with a Jumper

You can connect Y-tap and T-tap bodies with a plug-to-plug jumper (1786-TJPR,
not included).

IMPORTANT

When connecting taps with 1786-BNCP barrel connectors, use an
intrinsically-safe sheath or 500V insulation-rated tape to cover the
metal connector. Use of the intrinsically-safe sheath or insulated
tape is required for intrinsically safe certification.
