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 min 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.
