Product Description
The Burndy YA2CA3 is a high-performance HYLUG™ series aluminum compression terminal designed for heavy-duty power distribution and grounding applications up to 35kV. Precision-manufactured from high-conductivity aluminum and finished with electro-tin plating, this lug provides a permanent, low-resistance connection for both copper and aluminum conductors.
Designed for efficiency and reliability, the YA2CA3 features a factory-installed end cap and is pre-filled with Penetrox™ A13 oxide inhibitor. This ensures a gas-tight, maintenance-free connection by breaking down invisible aluminum oxidation upon contact. With its AL9CU dual-rating, this lug is the professional choice for commercial and industrial electrical infrastructure.
