Burndy YC4C8, Copper C-Shape Compression Connector, 100-Pack

Burndy YC4C8, Copper C-Shape Compression Connector, 100-Pack

The Burndy YC4C8 is a copper C-Shape compression connector manufactured under Burndy's CRIMPIT™ trade name, purpose-built for dependable medium-voltage electrical connections. This connector is rated from 600 Volts to 35 Kv, making it suitable for both distribution-level and higher-voltage tap and run wiring. The Run conductor range is 6 Sol. - 4 Str. and the Tap conductor range is 8 Sol. - 8 Str., allowing electricians to join a main run conductor to a smaller branch tap conductor using a single compression fitting. Each carton ships as a 100-pack, giving contractors, utilities, and industrial maintenance crews a ready supply of connectors for large-scale copper conductor splicing projects.

Key Features

• Copper Construction: Solid copper body provides excellent electrical conductivity and is compatible with copper conductors for a true copper-to-copper connection.
• C-Shape Compression Design: The CRIMPIT™ C-Shape configuration is installed using a compression tool to form a secure, permanent mechanical and electrical bond between run and tap conductors.
• Voltage Rating: Rated 600 Volts to 35 Kv, covering both standard low-voltage circuits and medium-voltage distribution applications.
• Run Conductor Range: Accepts a Run range of 6 Sol. - 4 Str. for the main through-conductor of the splice.
• Tap Conductor Range: Accepts a Tap range of 8 Sol. - 8 Str. for the branch conductor connected off the main run.
• Pack Quantity: Supplied in a 100-pack, reducing reorder frequency on larger installation and maintenance jobs.
• CRIMPIT™ Trade Name: Part of Burndy's recognized CRIMPIT™ compression connector line for copper conductor terminations.

Why Burndy?

Burndy's CRIMPIT™ C-Shape compression connectors are manufactured from solid copper to deliver a secure, long-lasting connection between run and tap conductors across a 600 Volt to 35 Kv voltage range. The compression method forms a permanent, low-resistance joint that electrical contractors and utility crews depend on for critical power distribution work. Because the YC4C8 ships as a 100-pack, crews working on larger installations, panel builds, or ongoing maintenance programs can keep a consistent supply of Burndy connectors on hand without frequent reordering, helping keep projects moving on schedule.
