OVERVIEW

Professional Grade Electrical Termination

The Burndy Sleeve Plug 28-P is a specialized component designed for the rigorous demands of industrial and commercial electrical infrastructure. Manufactured by Burndy, a global leader in connector technology, this sleeve plug is engineered to provide a secure and reliable termination point within compression sleeve systems. It is an essential accessory for professionals dealing with power cable management, ensuring that connections are not only mechanically sound but also electrically efficient.

Constructed from high-grade materials, typically high-conductivity copper, the 28-P plug is designed to maintain the integrity of the electrical circuit. To enhance its durability, the unit features a tin-plated finish. This plating is crucial for preventing oxidation and corrosion, which are common causes of connection failure in harsh or humid environments. Whether used in utility substations, manufacturing facilities, or heavy commercial construction, this plug withstands the test of time and environmental stress.

Precision Engineering and Compatibility

One of the key advantages of using genuine Burndy accessories like the 28-P is the assurance of compatibility. This plug is designed to work seamlessly with Burndy's extensive line of compression connectors and sleeves. Specifically, the "28" designation often correlates with a specific die index, ensuring that installers can use their standard Burndy tooling to achieve a perfect crimp every time. Proper fitment is critical in high-amperage applications to prevent hotspots and ensure safety.

Installation of the Burndy Sleeve Plug 28-P is straightforward for trained personnel. When inserted into the appropriate sleeve and compressed using the correct die set, it forms a solid, void-free mass that provides excellent electrical continuity. This process also helps in sealing the end of the sleeve, offering protection against moisture ingress and contaminants that could otherwise compromise the cable strands over time.

Applications and Reliability

This product is widely used in scenarios where cable ends need to be terminated or where a specific branch of a compression system needs to be plugged. It is suitable for use with both copper and aluminum conductors, depending on the specific sleeve it is paired with (always verify compatibility with the main connector body). By choosing Burndy, you are investing in a legacy of quality and safety that meets strict industry standards for power connectors.

FAQ

It is used to plug or terminate specific compression sleeves in electrical connections, ensuring a secure and sealed fit.

Burndy plugs are often compatible with both copper and aluminum systems, but you must check the specific sleeve's compatibility. The plug itself is typically tin-plated to prevent galvanic corrosion.

You will need a compatible compression tool (crimper) and the correct die set, likely Die Index 28, to properly compress the sleeve around the plug.

Most Burndy compression products are pre-filled with joint compound (Penetrox) if they are sleeves, but plugs are usually solid metal. Always follow the specific installation instructions for the connector body you are using.

Yes, the tin-plated finish offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for outdoor applications when installed within a proper enclosure or weatherproofed assembly.

In Burndy nomenclature, '28' typically refers to the Die Index number, which corresponds to the size of the connector and the tooling required.

Yes, this SKU is listed as '1 Per Ea', meaning it is sold individually.

It is generally made of high-conductivity copper with a tin plating.
