Buss Bar Connection
Buss Bar Connection

Description:
A bussbar is used as a termination or connecting device for motor leads and jumper cables inside an outlet box.

Construction:
We use bussbars made of copper. Most bars are 1/4" thick. Often they have a straight, "L", or "U" shape depending on the lead connection requirements.

Application:
Some typical applications may include: Ridgid power lead termination or connecting medium between lightning arrestors, surge capacitors, and the motor leads in the outlet box.

Installation:
The bussbar may be attached to accessory devices, or to a bussbar insulator.
