YG14B2TC2C6C

Overview

The Burndy YG14B2TC2C6C is a copper alloy compression bus bar connector designed for electrical grounding applications. It accommodates a #2 AWG solid or stranded copper conductor in the main run position and a #6 AWG solid or stranded copper conductor in the tap position. The component features an unplated finish and measures approximately 0.81 inches in length, 1.37 inches in width, and 1.5 inches in height. This Type YG-B connector provides a mechanical alternative to exothermic connections.

Feature Summary

• Compression termination design eliminates the need for exothermic welding processes
• Dual-port configuration supports simultaneous connection of main run and tap conductors
• Constructed from copper alloy material with an unplated surface finish

Applications

• Cellular tower grounding systems
• Direct burial installations
• Electrical equipment grounding taps

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific application requires a compression-style bus bar connector rather than an exothermic weld kit. Confirm conductor sizes match the #2 AWG main and #6 AWG tap specifications exactly. Ensure the installation environment is compatible with unplated copper alloy components without additional corrosion protection requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a reliable mechanical ground connection is required for cellular infrastructure or direct burial scenarios. It serves as a practical substitute for exothermic connections where ease of use and tool availability are priorities. Ensure crimping tools compatible with this specific connector geometry are available on-site.

Part Context

This component belongs to the HYGROUND® YG-B series of compression bus bar connectors manufactured by Burndy. These connectors are engineered specifically for grounding applications where robust mechanical integrity is essential. The series offers various size combinations to accommodate different conductor gauge requirements across multiple industrial sectors.

Replacement Considerations
