Burndy Dual Rated Splice Reducer 14AWG

Dual-rated splice reducer

The Burndy Dual Rated Splice Reducer connects two conductors in commercial electrical installations. It accepts stranded copper wire from 14 AWG up to 1/0 AWG and is also rated for aluminum conductor material. The mechanical connector uses a slotted head style for straightforward termination with standard tools. This component suits electricians and maintenance teams joining dissimilar metals in panel or field work.

Thermals and electrical limits

The connector body is aluminium and carries a maximum operating temperature of 194 degrees Fahrenheit. It is rated for 600 volts maximum voltage across the two terminations. No active cooling or fan is involved; heat dissipation relies on the conductor cross-section and ambient conditions. Power draw is determined entirely by the circuit the splice serves.

What the connector enables

The package provides the mechanical splice reducer itself with two termination points for the conductors. No additional hardware, insulating boots or software are included. The slotted head allows installation with a common screwdriver, reducing the need for specialised crimping tools on site. Buyers who need insulated multi-port blocks or torque-controlled shear-head bolts will need separate products.
