Grounding Split Bolt Connector

The Burndy KC23B1 is a mechanical grounding connector made from leaded bronze alloy. It accepts a single grounding wire ranging from 10 to 1 AWG solid or 8 to 2 AWG stranded. The connector carries UL Listed and UL467 certifications for direct burial applications. It is designed for electrical grounding installations requiring a secure mechanical bond.

Wire size and torque check

Verify that your grounding conductor falls within the 10 to 1 AWG solid or 8 to 2 AWG stranded range before ordering. The installation requires a torque of 280 in-lb on the 3/8 in.-16 thread to meet listing requirements. Ensure your tools can deliver this specification for a compliant connection. Confirm the single-wire capacity matches your project design.

Build integration

The connector measures 2.09 inches in overall length and 5/8 inch in width, fitting into standard grounding layouts. Its bronze construction resists corrosion in direct-burial environments without additional coatings. The mechanical design eliminates the need for exothermic welding kits or specialized crimp tools. It frees up installation time by using common hand tools for termination.
