Overview
The Burndy YGHP2C6W6W HYTAP Figure 6 compression ground tap connector provides reliable, code-compliant grounding connections for copper conductors in direct burial and concrete-encased applications. Built from high-strength copper with a tin hot-dipped finish, this irreversible compression connector accepts #6 Sol. to #2 Str. run conductors and #8 Sol. to #6 Str. tap conductors, making it ideal for grounding electrode systems, equipment grounding, and bonding applications.
Engineered by Burndy, a Hubbell brand trusted since 1924, this HYTAP connector comes prefilled with Penetrox E oxide inhibitor to ensure low-resistance connections that stand up to harsh underground environments. The single-crimp design with Die Index O enables fast, reliable field installation using standard Burndy compression tools.
