Burndy YC4C6 Unplated Copper C-Tap Compression Connector, 6-4 AWG

Burndy YC4C6 Unplated Copper C-Tap Compression Connector, 6-4 AWG

The Burndy YC4C6 is an unplated copper C-Tap compression connector engineered for splicing and tapping copper conductors in power distribution systems. Rated for 600 Volts to 35 Kv, this C-Shape connector accommodates a Run range of 6 Sol. - 4 Str. and a Tap range of 6 Sol. - 6 Str., delivering a secure, low-resistance copper-to-copper connection. Part of Burndy's CRIMPIT™ compression line, the YC4C6 uses a BG or 5/8 die index for consistent, code-compliant crimps in commercial, industrial, and utility electrical work. Its C-Shape design allows the run conductor to pass through while the tap conductor is crimped alongside it, forming a single, permanent compression splice without cutting the main run.

Key Features

• Conductor Range: Accommodates a Run of 6 Sol. - 4 Str. and a Tap of 6 Sol. - 6 Str. for flexible copper conductor splicing and tapping.
• Durable Construction: Unplated copper (CU) body provides a direct, low-resistance copper-to-copper compression connection.
• C-Tap Compression Design: C-Shape configuration crimps the run and tap conductors together in a single compression cycle for a permanent splice.
• Voltage Rating: Rated 600 Volts to 35 Kv for use across low- and medium-voltage power circuits.
• Die Index: Compresses with a BG or 5/8 die index for consistent, repeatable crimps.
• Trade Name: Part of Burndy's CRIMPIT™ compression connector line.

Why Burndy?

Burndy's YC4C6 compression connector combines unplated copper construction with the trusted CRIMPIT™ crimping system to deliver secure, low-resistance splices for demanding power applications. With a defined die index and clearly specified run and tap conductor ranges, this C-Tap connector is built for code-compliant, repeatable installations on electrical projects rated from 600 Volts to 35 Kv. Whether used on low-voltage branch circuits or medium-voltage utility feeders, the YC4C6 gives electrical contractors a straightforward, all-copper solution for adding a tap conductor to an existing run without splicing in a full junction.
