Burndy YS26LBOX – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What conductor size does the Burndy YS26LBOX splice take?
The YS26LBOX is sized for 2/0 AWG stranded copper. It also covers the Navy 125 (61) stranding class in that same size. It is a copper-to-copper splice only, so do not use it to join aluminum conductors.
2) How much insulation do I strip back for a Burndy HYLINK 2/0 copper splice?
Strip 1 inch off each conductor end. That matches the 15/16 inch B dimension, which is the depth from the barrel end to the internal stop, so a 1 inch strip seats the conductor fully with the barrel butting the insulation. Overall barrel length is 2.17 inches (55 mm) with a 0.56 inch outside diameter.
3) What die do I need to crimp the Burndy YS26LBOX?
Die index 13 for the U-style tooling, and 100 for the alternate index. The splice is also color coded black, which is the quick field check that you have the right connector and die pairing before you make the crimp.
4) Can I use this copper compression splice on medium voltage cable?
Yes. The YS26LBOX carries a 600V minimum and 35 kV maximum rating, so it works on 600V building feeders through 35 kV distribution and substation cable, provided the splice is insulated or re-jacketed to suit the system voltage.
5) Is the Burndy YS26LBOX splice UL Listed and CSA approved for inspected work?
UL Listed and CSA Approved, and built to UL486A-486B. It is not ETL certified, not UL Recognized, and not carried under a cULus mark, so if a spec calls specifically for cULus this one will not satisfy it on paper.
6) Why choose a short barrel splice instead of a long barrel one?
Short barrel splices like the YS26LBOX are for tight work, in a crowded handhole, pull box, or gutter, where a long barrel two-crimp-per-side connector will not fit or bend radius is short. It is specifically catalogued for limited space applications. Long barrel versions give you more crimps per conductor and more pullout resistance, so choose those when space allows and the spec calls for it.
7) Will a 2/0 copper compression splice fit inside 2 inch conduit or a small pull box?
Outside diameter is 0.56 inch and overall length is 2.17 inches, so the crimped splice itself is compact. Compression splices are not permitted inside conduit, they belong in an accessible enclosure, but those dimensions tell you whether it clears the wire fill and the box depth you are working with.
8) Is the tin plating on this Burndy splice suitable for damp or corrosive locations?
The barrel is solid copper with an electro-plated tin coating, which is the standard finish for resisting corrosion and oxidation on copper terminations in damp vaults, manholes, and industrial environments. Tin plating is also what lets it be used without concern for galvanic action against tinned copper conductors.
9) Does the Burndy YS26LBOX come in a box or can I buy one?
Minimum pack quantity is 1, so you can order a single splice rather than committing to a full carton. Useful when you need one repair connector rather than stocking a job quantity.
10) Is the Burndy YS26LBOX RoHS compliant?
RoHS compliance status is listed as CM, meaning compliant with exemption. That is the normal status for compression connectors, where lead content in the copper alloy falls under an allowed exemption.
