Burndy ES2R2W Insulated Aluminum Service Entrance Compression Sleeve

Burndy ES2R2W Insulated Aluminum Service Entrance Compression Sleeve

The Burndy ES2R2W is an insulated aluminum service entrance compression sleeve engineered to splice combinations of insulated copper (CU), aluminum (AL), and ACSR conductors in a single connection. Rated for a 2-AWG conductor range, this ES Series sleeve features a nylon insulation jacket over an aluminum body and is color-coded Red on Side A and Orange on Side B so installers can keep conductor orientation straight during the splice. As a reducing-style sleeve, it is built to transition between conductor sizes and constructions on each side, giving utility and electrical contractors a dependable way to join dissimilar conductor types at the service entrance while keeping the completed connection insulated and protected.

Key Features

• Conductor Range: Sized for 2-AWG conductors, matching the sleeve to service entrance splice requirements.
• Durable Construction: Aluminum body construction suited for compression splicing of CU, AL, and ACSR conductors.
• Compression Connection: Compression-style sleeve designed to join combinations of insulated copper, aluminum, and ACSR conductors in one splice.
• Insulated Design: Fully insulated with a nylon insulation jacket to help protect the completed splice from moisture and abrasion.
• Protective End Cap: Finished with a polyethylene cap to help seal and protect the sleeve end during and after installation.
• Color-Coded Ends: Red color coding on Side A and Orange on Side B simplify correct conductor placement during installation.
• ES Series Reducing Sleeve: Part of Burndy's ES Series, built to transition between conductor sizes and constructions, such as 2-AWG (6/1) Sparrow or 2-AWG (7/1) separate ACSR on Side A pairing with 4-AWG (6/1) Swan or 4-AWG (7/1) Swanate on Side B.

Why Burndy?

Burndy builds its ES Series service entrance sleeves with insulated aluminum construction, a nylon jacket, and a polyethylene end cap to give utility crews a reliable, code-compliant way to splice mixed conductor types at the service entrance. The color-coded Side A/Side B design helps installers get orientation right the first time, while the reducing-sleeve construction lets one part handle multiple conductor size and stranding combinations. Together, these details support consistent, dependable connections in overhead and underground distribution work where mixed CU, AL, and ACSR conductors need to be joined securely.
