Burndy has introduced its Bulkhead Ground Connector, designed to allow ground wires to easily and effectively be connected from the inside of an enclosure to the outside.

Using the company's proven split-bolt technology, the bulkhead ground connector incorporates Burndy's male and female "Servit Post" contacts as part of an easy-to-use kit. The male and female Servit-brand parts are made of silicon bronze; the supplied hardware is stainless steel. An optional rubber grommet is also provided to ensure a NEMA 4X rating when installed correctly.

Supplied with an easy-to-follow application guideline brochure, the new kit provides a solution to an application issue that has been a challenge to many industries for years, contends the company.
