Dual-rated splice reducer

The Burndy Dual Rated Splice Reducer connects two conductors in commercial electrical installations. It accepts stranded copper wire from 14 AWG up to 1/0 AWG and is also rated for aluminum conductor material. The mechanical connector uses a slotted head style for straightforward termination with standard tools. This component suits electricians and maintenance teams joining dissimilar metals in panel or field work.

Thermals and electrical limits

The connector body is aluminium and carries a maximum operating temperature of 194 degrees Fahrenheit. It is rated for 600 volts maximum voltage across the two terminations. No active cooling or fan is involved; heat dissipation relies on the conductor cross-section and ambient conditions. Power draw is determined entirely by the circuit the splice serves.

What the connector enables

The package provides the mechanical splice reducer itself with two termination points for the conductors. No additional hardware, insulating boots or software are included. The slotted head allows installation with a common screwdriver, reducing the need for specialised crimping tools on site. Buyers who need insulated multi-port blocks or torque-controlled shear-head bolts will need separate products.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Burndy splice reducer on 14 AWG copper wire, and what step is often missed?

Strip insulation to the correct length, insert the conductor fully into the aluminum body, then tighten the slotted set screw securely; the step often missed is verifying full insertion before final torque.

What maintenance or replacement will this connector need over time?

Inspect periodically for oxidation on the aluminum body and retighten the slotted screws if thermal cycling loosens them; replace if corrosion or overheating damage appears.

What limit appears first when this splice runs continuously at high load?

The 194 °F maximum operating temperature is the first limit reached under sustained current, so ensure ambient conditions and conductor sizing keep the connector below that threshold.
