Burndy YS44 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What conductor size does the Burndy YS44 splice take?
The YS44 HYLINK splice is sized for 1000 kcmil stranded copper conductor, one cable into each end. It is a copper body connector, so it is for copper only, not aluminum.
2) How much insulation do I strip back for a Burndy YS44 compression splice?
Strip 3 inches of insulation from each conductor end. The barrel is 6.55 inches overall, so each cable seats roughly half its length into the splice, and the chamfered barrel mouth helps the strands start in without birdcaging.
3) Which compression die do I use on the Burndy YS44?
The YS44 is color coded WHITE and marked with the 27 die index, so set your compression tool with the matching 27 index die. Match the die to the marking on the barrel rather than to the cable size.
4) Can I use the Burndy YS44 splice on a 15kV or 35kV medium voltage feeder?
Yes. The YS44 HYLINK splice is rated to 35kV maximum with a 600 volt minimum rating, and it is rated for 90 degrees C continuous, which covers medium voltage distribution work up to 35kV as well as ordinary 600V power feeders.
5) How long is the Burndy YS44 splice, and will it fit inside my splice box or duct?
Overall length is 6.55 inches (166 mm), with a 2.94 inch B dimension. Allow for that full barrel length plus taped or shrink insulation when you are checking clearance inside a handhole, pull box, or duct.
6) Is the YS44 a long barrel splice, and why would I pick that over a short barrel?
It is the long barrel version, which gives more contact area and more crimps per side than a short barrel of the same size. On 1000 kcmil feeders carrying heavy current, or in utility and underground work where the joint sees mechanical pull, the long barrel is the one specified. Short barrel versions exist mainly where space in the enclosure is tight.
7) Will the tin plating on the YS44 hold up in a wet underground vault?
The body is copper with an electro tin plating, which is what gives it corrosion resistance in damp vaults, manholes, and direct-buried splice locations. Tin plating also means it will not gall against tinned cable strands. It is still a copper-to-copper connector, so do not use it to join aluminum conductor.
8) Does the Burndy YS44 come in a bag or can I order a single piece?
Minimum pack quantity is 1, so you can buy a single splice for a one-off repair rather than a full carton.
9) Is the YS44 RoHS compliant for a spec submittal?
Burndy lists the YS44 with a RoHS compliance status of CM. For a submittal package, pair that with the UL Listing and the UL468A-468B conformance, which are the two items usually called out on a connector spec.
