• Safe and easy installation in five minutes or less
• No special equipment necessary “ requires only a knife, wire stripper, hex tool and crimp tool
• Safely separates upon impact without breaking wires
• Spring loaded contacts compensate for thermal expansion to maintain integrity of connection (breakaway models)

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 minutes 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.
