About
Burndy was founded on July 19, 1924, as Burndy Engineering Company in Brooklyn, New York, by science historian and civic leader Bern Dibner. The name Burndy is a contraction of Dr. Dibner’s first name and last initial, “BERN D”. Dr. Dibner designed and patented a universal connector, requiring neither soldering nor welding thereby enabling a unified grid. Until its acquisition, in 1988, by the French corporation Framatome Connectors International (FCI), Burndy remained family-owned. Later, in November 2005, FCI was acquired by Bain Capital, and it was in October 2009 that the Burndy segment became a part of the HUBBELL Electrical Systems family of companies (NYSE: HUB.B).
Headquartered in Manchester, New Hampshire, Burndy has 2 US manufacturing sites and one in Mexico.
