Overview

The ABB FYA 2 Flood-Seal Y-Type Fuse/Disconnect Kit is a mechanical fuse and disconnect solution engineered for street and highway lighting systems. This kit integrates overcurrent protection and circuit isolation into a single Y-type assembly, reducing field components and simplifying wiring for outdoor applications. The FYA 2 accommodates a 2 AWG stranded aluminum run conductor with a copper tap connection, terminated via crimped lug connectors. Installation requires specific dies (52, BG, 243) for proper termination, ensuring secure and reliable connections. The Flood-Seal series is designed to withstand environmental factors common in outdoor lighting installations, including moisture and corrosion. The Y-type configuration supports branching circuits, allowing a single input to distribute power to multiple outputs or tap connections. The kit includes a Y-Type insert and housing (line side), a connecting link (disconnect kits only), nut, bolt, Belleville washers, lugs, load end insert with connector, and load end twin cap. Installation instructions specify lubricating cable ends with silicone grease, stripping 1/2" of conductor insulation, and seating components properly to prevent moisture ingress. The Flood-Seal series is rated for 600V applications and is part of ABB's Installation Products catalog, known for quality in electrical distribution and protection systems.

How to Install the FYA/DYA/FYC/DYC Street Lighting Kit

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for assembling and installing the FYA, DYA, FYC, or DYC street lighting kit. WARNING: Risk of shock, disconnect power before installation. This product must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Identify LINE and LOAD sides of wiring and molded connector bodies before beginning installation.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

Caliper, Cable cutter, Wire strippers, Crimping tool, Wood dowel, Wire brush, Wrench

Supplies needed:

Y-Type housing, Load side (Plug) housing, Line end insert, Fuse holder, Connecting link (DYA & DYC only), Fuse (13/32" x 1 1/2", 600V 30A max), Nut, Bolt, Belleville washers, Lugs, Lubricant, HM53 inhibitor or equivalent (for aluminum only)

  1. Prepare Load Side Housing for Cable

    Measure the cable diameter. Refer to Table 1 in the documentation to select the corresponding section on the load side (plug) housing. Cut off the remaining sections of the housing to the size referenced in the Range column of Table 1. For example, if the cable OD is 0.390 inch, cut at the 4-2 line.

  2. Clean and Strip Load Side Cable

    Thoroughly clean approximately 8 inches along the load side cable end. Apply lubricant and insert the cable through the small hole in the load side (plug) housing. Push the cable through a sufficient distance to permit 3/8 inch for stripping of insulation. Strip the insulation a distance of 3/8 inch as shown in the diagram.

  3. Crimp Cable to Fuse Holder

    Insert the stripped cable into the crimp barrel of the fuse holder and crimp it. Refer to Table 2 in the documentation for suggested tool and die combinations based on conductor size. CAUTION: Do not over strip the cable insulation.

  4. Install Fuse Holder into Load Side Housing

    Apply lubricant lightly to the outside of the fuse holder. Place the wood dowel into the socket and position the free end of the dowel against a firm surface. Push the load side (plug) housing forward until the fuse holder snaps into position. Wipe off any excess lubricant.

  5. Insert Fuse or Connecting Link

    Insert a 13/32 inch by 1 1/2 inch fuse (600 Volt 30 Amp max.) or a connecting link (for DYA & DYC only) into the load side (plug) housing. WARNING: DO NOT use a glass body fuse.

  6. Prepare Y-Type Housing and Cable for Run Connection

    For a run connection, select and cut the correct cut-off ring on the Y-Type housing for the cable being used. Cut and bevel the cable insulation. Apply lubricant to the end of the cable and the cut opening of the housing. Slide the cable through until it extends 2 to 3 inches beyond the housing. Strip the insulation to fit the compression lugs.

  7. Crimp Lugs and Prepare for Connection

    Crimp the lugs with the proper crimping tool, ensuring the pad portions of the lugs are back to back. For aluminum conductors only, wire brush the pads of the lugs, then apply HM53 inhibitor or an equivalent product on the pads, and wipe off any excess inhibitor.

  8. Assemble Line End Insert

    Assemble the line end insert as shown in the illustration, using the provided nut, bolt, and Belleville washers. Tighten the bolted assembly securely.

  9. Install Line End Insert into Y-Type Housing

    Apply lubricant as shown in the diagram. Slide the Y-Type housing up to the bottom of the line end insert. Push the line end insert into the opening of the Y-Type housing. While pulling on the cables and holding onto the Y-Type housing, slide the housing toward the line end insert. Push the line end insert until it is fully seated in the housing.

  10. Connect Load Side to Line End Insert

    Lubricate both the male and female components. Insert the load side (plug) housing, which contains the installed link or fuse clip, into the line end insert.
