Tin-plated copper split-bolt connector, square head, 1.95 in long, 0.79 in wide

Burndy

Burndy KSU26 Split-Bolt Connector 2 AWG to 2/0 AWG

SKU CH-WQQN-YYVVV

Split-bolt connector joins 2 AWG to 2/0 AWG copper, aluminum or steel conductors with a tin-plated copper body rated to 35 kV

  • Product typeElectrical Connectors
  • Tin-plated copper body resists corrosion
  • Accepts 2 AWG to 2/0 AWG run conductors
  • Square-head design enables 385 in-lb torque
  • Compact 1.95 in length fits tight spaces
  • RoHS compliant for regulated environments

Split-Bolt Connector for 2 AWG to 2/0 AWG

The Burndy KSU26 split-bolt connector joins aluminum, copper or steel conductors in electrical and industrial wiring. It accepts run wires from 2 AWG up to 2/0 AWG and tap wires from 8 AWG up to 2/0 AWG. The tin-plated copper body resists corrosion in demanding environments.

Fits into a build with square-head fastening

A 1.04 in hex nut and square head allow standard tool engagement for secure termination. The connector is rated to 35 kV maximum voltage and requires 385 in-lb of torque for proper installation. Its compact 1.95 in length and 0.79 in width suit tight junction spaces.

Capacity covers 2/0 AWG maximum conductors

The connector comfortably handles run and tap combinations up to 2/0 AWG across the specified material range. It runs out when conductor sizes exceed 2/0 AWG or when voltage requirements surpass the 35 kV rating. RoHS compliance confirms restricted-substance adherence.

Questions about this item

What torque value should I apply to the 1.04 in hex nut so the connector holds under continuous load?

Tighten the square-head bolt to 385 in-lb; that is the specified torque for the 1.04 in hex nut on this split-bolt connector.

How hot does the tin-plated copper body get when carrying maximum current all day?

The connector is rated for 35 kV maximum voltage with copper, aluminum or steel conductors; temperature rise depends on the conductor size and ambient conditions, not on the connector itself.

Which conductor sizes must I already have on hand for the run and tap openings?

You need run conductors between 2 AWG and 2/0 AWG and tap conductors between 8 AWG and 2/0 AWG; the connector accepts copper, aluminum or steel in those ranges.
