Features
- Safe and easy installation in five minutes or less
- No special equipment necessary " requires only a knife, wire stripper, hex tool and crimp tool
- Safely separates upon impact without breaking wires
- Spring loaded contacts compensate for thermal expansion to maintain integrity of connection (breakaway models)
Buchanan® Breakaway Connector Kits are designed for use in highway lighting, area lighting, flood lighting, and power distribution circuits in the wire range of #14 to #2 AWG. The kits install easily in 5 minutes or less using only a knife, wire stripper, and crimp tool - eliminating the need for special equipment, potting, tape, extra crimp inserts, resins, and cure time.
The built in "breakaway" design prevents broken wires and the de-energization of a complete circuit when one component, such as a light standard, fails due to vehicular impact. The kits separate safely under tension, retaining the fuse in the harmless load side, eliminating danger and electrical shock.
