Burndy YDS26 Copper Full Tension Splice STR Compression

Burndy YDS26 is a copper full-tension splice sleeve in Burndy’s Hysplice line, engineered specifically for copper‑to‑copper splices on 2/0 AWG stranded conductors. This six‑inch sleeve is formed from copper and carries die code 166, accommodating 2/0 AWG strands configured as 7, 12, or 19 strands for a robust, high‑tension connection in overhead distribution work. As a full‑tension, STR compression splice, the YDS26 is designed to join continuous copper conductors in overhead utility installations, providing a reliable joint where a strong mechanical connection is essential. With its copper body and 6‑inch length, it serves as a dedicated solution for splicing copper conductors in overhead lines, aligning with common industry practice for overhead distribution applications. The YDS26 is widely listed by distributors such as Crescent Electric, Nedco, and Kirby Risk, confirming its compatibility with 2/0 AWG stranded copper conductors and its 166 die code.
