Overview

The ABB E-Z-Ground Ground Grid Copper Compression Connector (SKU: GG40250-21) is a UL 467 listed, direct-burial rated solution for secure grounding connections in industrial and utility applications. Engineered for 4/0 AWG or 250 kcmil copper conductors and 1/2" or 5/8" ground rods, this heavy-wall, extruded copper connector delivers high conductivity and corrosion resistance in harsh environments. The pre-applied conductive antioxidant compound ensures a durable mechanical and electrical bond, reducing installation time while maintaining long-term reliability. Designed for compatibility with copper-clad and stainless steel ground rods, the connector is marked with Panduit die index numbers for proper crimp tool selection. Ideal for electrical substations, renewable energy projects, industrial facilities, and utility grounding systems, this connector meets IEEE Std 837-2002 and REV 2014 standards for enhanced crimp processes. The slotted design allows quick assembly using Panduit cable ties, and the connector is tested to MIL-STD-202G (Method 201A) for vibration resistance. Not rated for galvanized ground rods or galvanized cable. Complies with CSA 22.2 certification for direct burial in earth or concrete when crimped with approved tools.
