Install with hydraulic tooling with hex crimp dies.
Cuts installation time in half — with results
superior to conventional connectors.
Bus Bar Connector
EZGround
™
Bus Bar Connectors install in less than two minutes with one easy crimp! The connector attaches
directly to the bus, saving the labor-intensive process of drilling and tapping. The unique jaw interface of the
EZGround
™
Bus Bar Connector grips the copper bus, resulting in a low-resistance, high-conductivity connection.
The EZGround
™
Bus Bar Connector can be used in OEM applications or telecom applications — cellular, PCS
and others. It provides a continuous ground to the copper bus bar, making it ideal for hut and tower applications.
The design enables installation in virtually any position, horizontal or vertical, and is suitable for inside and outside
plant use. Installation can be completed using any T&B compression tool that accepts U-shaped die sets and is rated
12-ton or higher.
