Burndy UGSKIT2 Watertight Underground Splice Kit

Burndy UGSKIT2 Watertight Underground Splice Kit, Dual Rated

The Burndy UGSKIT2 is a watertight underground splice kit engineered for dual rated aluminum and copper conductor connections in the #8-2 AWG range. Built for direct burial applications, this splice kit includes 2 heavy wall heat shrink sleeves that shrink down to form a tight, moisture-resistant barrier around each completed splice. Because the UGSKIT2 is dual rated for Al/Cu conductors, it can be used to join aluminum-to-aluminum, copper-to-copper, or aluminum-to-copper conductors within a single underground connection. This makes the UGSKIT2 a practical, code-conscious choice for contractors and utilities who need a dependable, watertight splice solution for underground and below-grade electrical work.

Key Features

• Conductor Range: Accommodates #8-2 AWG conductors, covering a broad range of underground branch and feeder splicing applications.
• Dual Rated Al/Cu: Rated for both aluminum and copper conductors, giving installers flexibility to splice mixed-metal underground circuits with a single kit.
• Heavy Wall Heat Shrink Sleeves: Includes 2 heavy wall heat shrink sleeves that shrink down over the splice to create a tight, watertight barrier.
• Watertight Seal: Purpose-built to keep moisture out of underground and direct burial splice points, helping protect the connection from corrosion and water intrusion over time.
• Direct Burial Rated: Suitable for direct burial installation, making it well suited for underground feeder and service conductor splices.
